treats a 421 reply code from a milter "magically", and shuts down the
connection.  See line 3376 of sendmail/milter.c and line 848 of
sendmail/srvsmtp.c.  I do not believe this "feature" exists in Sendmail
8.12.x.

It looks like some rule sets can also force the connection to be terminated
by returning 421.
