Summary: check_smtp: --expect= result in "recv() failed"

Initial Comment:
The following Bugreport we got against our debian package (1.4.12):

I monitor a SMTP server that refuses the connection immediately,
without waiting for HELO. Before upgrade to lenny I used this command:

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_smtp -H novell.vkol.cz -e 520

and it was OK.
Now I get error: recv() failed
and status is WARNING.

You can track the bugreport via

Thanks and kind regards, Jan.

Hi Jan,
this can easily be accomplished by using check_tcp. There's nothing smtp
specific in there.
