SMTP 252 Cannot Verify User vs 530 Authentication Required
SMTP 252 (Cannot Verify User) is a 2xx Positive Completion response, while 530 (Authentication Required) is a 5xx Permanent Negative response. 252 indicates that the server cannot verify the user but will accept the message and attempt delivery. This is often returned in response to VRFY when the server intentionally hides user information. 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.
