read up on your RFC's, silent discard is permitted for spam, has been
RFC'd for few years now replacing old 2822 or whatever it was

tell that your angry user after a false-positive in case of important mails - in the real world not only matters what is permitted - common sense could help here.....

if i need to take the phone and ask the admin if a mail was discarded or just not delivered at the moment the mailservice is shit

a reject at SMTP level in case of spam don't produce bounces anywhere, but the bot may interpret as "that RCPT don't accept mail" - with a silent discard you sign "hey we receive all your crap" which is pretty stupid - see attached stats after change from discard to reject
