It's always safe to append more stuff to the control file. Whether it's safe to rewrite it from scratch is something I need to think about.
I thought it was, too. However, when I started actually testing that theory, I found that it's not the case at the time that a courierfilter runs. If a courierfilter appends data to a control file, Courier may then add a "COMCTLFILE_8BIT" record. The write pointer for the ctlfile hasn't changed, so that record overwrites a portion of what data the courierfilter added.
