smtpmail-send-it errors

[Kevin Rodgers]

When smtpmail-send-it signals an "Sending failed; SMTP protocol error" error,
the first thing one always does is check the *trace of SMTP session to
smtpmail-smtp-server* buffer.

I've advised smtpmail-send-it to automatically display the trace buffer before
propagating error, but it'd be nice if smtpmail.el did that itself:

(defadvice smtpmail-send-it (around display-trace-buffer activate)
  "If an error is signalled, display the process buffer."
  (condition-case signals-data
      ad-do-it
    (error (shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer
            (display-buffer (get-buffer (format "*trace of SMTP session to %s*"
                                                smtpmail-smtp-server))))
           (signal (car signals-data) (cdr signals-data)))))
