Second, there is no restriction in using it as part of a

C: DATA

S: 150-Waiting for trust server to respond...

Who knows? Is this not possible? It is out of the whelm of
real possibility?
No, it is is clearly not impossible. However, it raises two
issues in addition to the one about the codes all being the same
which, IMO (and in the text of 2821), arises from one of them.
Perhaps off topic, but it seems that sendmail uses 0xx
with similar way if VERB command is given
EHLo xx

1xx was not selected for that usage. So 050 is really used,
but is 150 used on somewhere?
