SMTP 235 Authentication Successful vs 450 Mailbox Unavailable
SMTP 235 (Authentication Successful) is a 2xx Positive Completion response, while 450 (Mailbox Unavailable) is a 4xx Transient 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, 450 means that the requested mail action was not taken because the mailbox is temporarily unavailable. This could be due to the mailbox being locked by another process or a temporary policy restriction.
