Yes, that's probably right. I see that Exim gets it wrong when you set
helo_verify_hosts; it sends 550 for MAIL without HELO. I should probably
fix that.

When I get back to working on the functionality, I'll think about
allowing a restricted set of codes for ACL denys. In particular, only
4xx or 5xx. Something along the lines of "if the message string starts
with 4xx or 5xx then use that as the code".
