And this one from the SMTP RFC 821:
NOOP (NOOP)
This command does not affect any parameters or previously
entered commands. It specifies no action other than that
the receiver send an OK reply.
This command has no effect on any of the reverse-path
buffer, the forward-path buffer, or the mail data buffer.
