I looked at this briefly and it didn't look too bad. For example, to
merge in the direction of action_bounce(), the following changes are
necessary:
* In action_bounce (etc.), if !$InMessageContext, save the reply,
code, and dsn to global variables. Also, set a global variable
for the fact that we want a bounce (vs. tempfail or discard).
* In sender_ok (etc.), setup the additional globals. Then, if $ok
is undefined, look to the global variables.
* Add something like action_no_more_filtering().
To merge in the direction of return codes, one would just check the
return codes from filter_end (etc.) and call action_bounce, etc.
Either way, the mimedefang-filter man page would need updating, of
course.
Both of these approaches would be backwards compatible with existing
filters.
