What exactly is this function, and how does it differ from Calendar.Time.format_smtp()? The docs for the latter state that it's "as seen in Date: headers in mails", which seems to be the same purpose. They appear to give the same output. Should the ClientHelper function have a docs reference to format_smtp? Is there a reason to use ClientHelper instead?

It might be this is simply an attempt to not make the Calendar module a dependency (since it is quite heavy). Or maybe format_smtp() was just not available when grubba added the function.
