asyncio.get_event_loop(): DeprecationWarning: There is no current event loop

I'm building an SMTP server with aiosmtpd and used the examples as a base to build from. Below is the code snippet for the entry point to the program.

if __name__ == '__main__':
    loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
    loop.create_task(amain(loop=loop))
    try:
        loop.run_forever()
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        pass

When I run the program, I get the following warning:

server.py:61: DeprecationWarning: There is no current event loop
  loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()

What's the correct way to implement this?
