If the reply code (rcode) given is a code but is used for the message, the custom reply is not used.
In neither of these two cases, an error is returned to the Milter and silently ignores the reply code.
o If the Milter returns and sets the reply code to the SMTP server terminates the SMTP session with a error code.
