This bug needs to be fixed.
1) 455, 555 missing
Add this section
4.1.1.11 Mail-parameter and Rcpt-parameter Error Responses
If the server SMTP does not recognize or cannot implement one or more
of the parameters associated with a particular MAIL FROM or RCPT TO
command, it will return code 555.
If for some reason the server is temporarily unable to accommodate
one or more of the parameters associated with a MAIL FROM or RCPT TO
command, and if the definition of the specific parameter does not
mandate the use of another code, it should return code 455.
Errors specific to particular parameters and their values will be
specified in the parameter's defining RFC.
In sections 4.2.2 and 4.2.3
455 Server unable to accommodate parameters
555 MAIL FROM/RCPT TO parameters not recognized or not implemented

John,
I have one more question:
FRC 1869 defines 2 new SMTP reply codes in section 6.1:
If the server SMTP does not recognize or cannot implement one or more
of the parameters associated with a particular MAIL FROM or RCPT TO
command, it will return code 555.
If for some reason the server is temporarily unable to accomodate one
or more of the parameters associated with a MAIL FROM or RCPT TO
command, and if the definition of the specific parameter does not
mandate the use of another code, it should return code 455.
They are not in RFC 2821 which obsoleted RFC 1869. Bug or feature?
Missed this, sorry. I'd have to call it a bug. IMO these need to be added
to 2821bis.
