for the smtp login method, use challenges "Username:" and "Password:" as attempt to improve interoperability

Browse source 
there is only an internet-draft about the required behaviour. it says clients
should ignore the strings. some clients do check the string. most servers
appear to use "Username:" and "Password:" as challenge. we'll follow them,
hoping to improve interoperability.

for issue #223 by gdunstone, and with analysis from wneessen of go-mail.
thanks!
