c (IN OUT NOCOPY)	The SMTP connection.

Usage Notes

The quit() command informs the SMTP server of the client's intent to terminate the session. It then closes the connection established by open_connection(), which must have been called before executing this command. If a mail transaction is in progress when quit() is issued, it is abandoned in the same manner as rset().

The function form of this command returns a single line beginning with the status code 221 on successful termination. In all cases, the connection to the SMTP server is closed. The fields remote_host and remote_port of c are reset.
