SMTP 421 Service Not Available vs 530 Authentication Required
SMTP 421 (Service Not Available) is a 4xx Transient Negative response, while 530 (Authentication Required) is a 5xx Permanent Negative response. 421 indicates that the SMTP service is not available and the server is closing the transmission channel. This may be sent as a greeting or during a session if the server needs to shut down. In contrast, 530 means that the server requires authentication before accepting mail commands. You must issue the AUTH command with valid credentials before attempting to send mail.
