because it is a really stupid idea to reject too soon and
after that missing informations from logfiles which can
be helpful if your user calls you for support or you
want provide the user actively support

iPhones as exmaple are here regulary clients losing for
whatever reason the auth-settings and try for weeks
and months to submit the same message

in such cases it is helful provide the user a logentry
with MAIL FROM and MAIL TO because he thinks the
message was sent
