We've all done it. That light bulb is the learning process that will
mean even more to you later than it does now when you apply better
consideration of WHEN things are visible in an smtp conversation, not
just what it should be.

The panic log is for when things are completely and unconditionally
dying and preventing any kind of operation (mail transfer). Your
error is less severe, in that the mail can be transferred, and it
notes the error in the ACL.

That's the way I interpreted it. I look forward to seeing if anybody
interprets it differently.
