'ping' (at defaults) sends quite small packets, and doesn't look for anything more complex than a return coming back to it. traceroute is a bit more complex. smtp (can | may) push the bandwidth envelope a bit harder still - more especially if it has to Base-64 encode moderate-sized, but *multi-page* fax-as-graphics files.
