Support (or allow) HELP command implementation
Currently conn.go does not support HELP SMTP command and throws a 502.
This presents a problem because many clients, like curl, request HELP upon connection.
curl -v "smtp://$SMTP_SERVER_HOST:$SMTP_SERVER_PORT"
* Trying 34.212.234.28:2525...
* Connected to redacted (REDACTED) port 2525
< 220 redacted ESMTP Service Ready

Do you have any plans to implement or allow implementation (by interface extension) of basic HELP response? I really admire and appreciate your work. Happy to add PR if this is acceptable.
Yeah, PRs welcome! What do typical servers send back as help message?
