You got me on this one - I just went and checked the document. It is, however, quite a recent document (April 2001), and there are still too many people using older software. I prefer having the old, trusted phylosophy - Be strict on what you send, relaxed on what you receive. Now, I am not reading the whole document just to check this out. Skimming it, I found many reasons for the 'DATA' command to return a 4xx or 5xx error code, but didn't find a reason to interrupt the client.
