SMTP 235 Authentication Successful vs 552 Exceeded Storage

SMTP 235 (Authentication Successful) is a 2xx Positive Completion response, while 552 (Exceeded Storage) is a 5xx Permanent Negative response. 235 indicates that the client has been successfully authenticated using the AUTH command. The server will now accept mail commands from this authenticated session. In contrast, 552 means that the requested mail action was aborted because the recipient's mailbox has exceeded its storage allocation. Unlike the temporary 452, this is a permanent rejection for this specific mailbox.
