       See Section 10.3
       <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7489#section-10.3> for some
       discussion of SMTP rejection methods and their implications.

The problem is that _quarantine_ and _reject_ are imperative verbs. The specification can use any definition, but if it uses imperative words, they are going to be taken as imperative.

Maybe _discardable_ should be used instead.

Why do I have a feeling of deja vu?
