Hi all,

I note that SIMS returns a 591 error code when rejecting mail that's 
been tagged as spam.

I'm curious if this is editable, either on a per-DNSbl level (i.e. 
positive results from some lists can return a 5xx error, and some can 
return a 4xx error), or on a global scale (i.e. instead of giving the 
error code 591, perhaps give the error 550).

While spamware is generally obnoxious, it would appear that some 
respond to 550 errors by auto-removing that address from their list. 
When SIMS rejects mail with 591, nearly all the spamware that 
attempts to deliver mail to my server continue to bombard my 60Mhz 
Performa 6115CD with repeated attempts to deliver the spam.

Cheers!
