I would like to suggest one paragraph wording after the final paragraph in

   Only the final or last reply-code is important in a multiline

   preliminary reply code 150- as part of multiline response
   with a final non-continuation completion code.

Absolutely not. This is way too new and experimental for this revision,
and utterly unsupported by running code.

If you want to define a 150 response, write a proper ESMTP service
extension.
