<td>Opaque context structure.
</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td>rcode</td>
<td>The three-digit (RFC 821/2821) SMTP reply code, as a
null-terminated string. rcode cannot be NULL, and must be a valid
4XX or 5XX reply code.

<tr valign="top"><td>xcode</td>
<td>The extended (RFC 1893/2034) reply code. If xcode is NULL, no
extended code is used. Otherwise, xcode must conform to RFC 1893/2034.

<!----------- Return values ---------->
<tr>
<th valign="top" align=left>RETURN VALUES</th>
<td>smfi_setreply will fail and return MI_FAILURE if:

<li>The rcode or xcode argument is invalid.
<li>A memory-allocation failure occurs.
</ul>
Otherwise, it return MI_SUCCESS.

<!----------- Notes ---------->
<tr align="left" valign=top>
<th>NOTES</th>
<td>
<ul>
<li>Values passed to smfi_setreply are not checked for standards compliance.
<li>The message parameter should contain only printable characters,
other characters may lead to undefined behavior.
For example, CR or LF will cause the call to fail,
single '%' characters will cause the text to be ignored
(if there really should be a '%' in the string,
use '%%' just like for <tt>printf(3)</tt>).
<li>For details about reply codes and their meanings, please see RFC's
<a href="http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc821.txt">821</a>/
<a href="http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2821.txt">2821</a>
and
<a href="http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1893.txt">1893</a>/
<a href="http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2034.txt">2034</a>.
<li>If the reply code (rcode) given is a '4XX' code but SMFI_REJECT is used
for the message, the custom reply is not used.
<li>Similarly, if the reply code (rcode) given is a '5XX' code but
SMFI_TEMPFAIL is used for the message, the custom reply is not used.
<BR>
Note: in neither of the last two cases an error is returned to the milter,
libmilter silently ignores the reply code.
<li>
If the milter returns SMFI_TEMPFAIL
and sets the reply code to '421',
then the SMTP server will terminate the SMTP session with a 421
error code.
