tmda-ofmipd raises exception on TLS

I'm having problems getting tmda-ofmipd to accept TLS connections.

I've installed the tlslite application with the TMDA-patch for Python 2.5 and 
created a server certificate and a server key. However, when I attempt to 
create a connection as follows (or via an email client):

telnet localhost 8025
EHLO there
STARTTLS
EHLO there

tmda-ofmipd crashes with the following debug output (beginning from the telnet 
connection):

Incoming connection from: ('192.168.1.2', 48301)
Incoming connection to: ('192.168.1.2', 8025)
Data: 'EHLO localhost'
Data: 'STARTTLS'

Can someone help me figure out what's going wrong?
