Description:
------------
Using Mail 1.1.4

Line #158 of Mail/smtp.php reads

if (PEAR::isError($smtp->connect())) {

If smtp server is unavailable, my code hangs here until script timeout.

For my use, I have hard-coded a timeout of 10 seconds thusly:

if (PEAR::isError($smtp->connect(10))) {

I propose an additional smtp param called 'timeout' which defaults to NULL
