Okay, I tested heavily and found out how it works.  In contradiction
to <http://refdb.sourceforge.net/manual/ch23s03.html#id2657099>, the
408 has a trailing result message.  (Although it is sent with a
slight delay.)  Moreover, while the 403 has terminated content, it
is always empty.  The complete communication in case of adding
something twice is:

'6\x00\x00\x00\x00' ==>
<== '000'
<== '210-82-39-61'
<== '\x00\x00\x00\x00'

<== '403'
<== '\x00\x00\x00\x00'
'000' ==>
<== '000'
<== '999:2 added:0 skipped:0 failed\n\x00\x00\x00\x00'
'000' ==>

By the way, I wonder what the 404 is for.

Are the docs out of sync with the daemon?

Tschö,
Torsten.
