You're free to return something other than "250 OK" after a DATA
segement.
However, it *is* a bit pointless because you've burned bandwidth to
accept the message by then. :/
On the other hand, rejecting such mail means you don't spend any more of
your resources on it- local storage, local network bandwidth, or
possibly more outside bandwidth for a mail client to download the
message.
