Right. Assuming that the described validation scheme is, in fact,
what's being used, you'd expect Verizon's mailer to retain and cache
the validation. That way, a single 450 can be turned into a 200 series
or a 550.
As Randy said, 450 means "there's a problem here that should be fixed
soon; come back later". If it doesn't change, it's not a 450.
