That is correct, you can set the SMTP response code to a 4xx or 5xx category
response. In this case, the SMTP Service will know that it has to ignore the
recipient specification command (i.e. the recipient will not be added to the
recipient list). Is this what you were looking for?

_EOD is a protocol event similar to RCPT, it is triggered on End-Of-Data
~end of DATA or end of BDAT (last BDAT only), when the email data has been
sent by the sender and it is waiting for acknowledgement.

I think we should clarify first what and when exactly you want to do. What
you mean by "before the mail is sent" exactly (is EOD OK)? What you mean
exactly by ignoring a recipient? Really "ignoring" it, without returning an
error on the RCPT command or rejection is OK?

I could never get that event work :(
