(reply to old thread about starttls support in smtpmail.el)

I implemented STARTTLS support for smtpmail.el, and created a page to
describe how to use it at

http://josefsson.org/emacs-smtp-starttls.html 

The patch also include support for the SASL authentication method
CRAM-MD5 too.

Hopefully something similar can be shipped with emacsen in the future.
