Because of what ? Your misconfigured MTA or a software that does'nt work
RFC conform?
Your MTA is unable to process the AUTH request and replies the '454' -
reconfigure your MTA to process the AUTH request and to answer '535' if
the AUTH failes (or '235' on success)
If your MTA will reply right, this feature will work like expected.
AGAIN (to be clear): the '454' does NOT indicate that the authentication
has been failed - it indicates a temporary internal processing error of
the MTA.

Thank you Thomas!
So, there is no way of blocking such brute force attempts to use smtp
auth against local addresses ?
It would be nice, if, let's say, after 10-th attempt, remote ip would
have been blocked.
