200 and 201 do not have a deprecated meaning in RFC 3977.

200 = posting may be available during the session (possibly after commands like 
STARTTLS or AUTHINFO have been successfully sent)
201 = posting will never be allowed in the session, whatever the user does.

I agree that the only way to know whether posting is allowed at a given time 
during the session is to send CAPABILITIES and to look for POST.
