The program known as 'Snubby Mail Rejector Daemon v1.3' was not a mail server. It was a small daemon that would exit on the QUIT command. Beyond that, it gave the same series of 5 responses to any input: 250, 250, 550, 250, 221. It was probably written to expect HELO, MAIL FROM, RCPT TO, RSET, QUIT.
