qmail-local doesn't seem to understand this type of thing -- i.e., I
don't there's a dot-qmail exit code that means "bounce this message but
continue handling the rest of the delivery lines as if it was
successful".  You have to use separate dot-qmail files for that.

No.  The best you could do would be to construct your own bounce
message, preferably following QSBMF, and then send it to the envelope
return path with an empty sender.  i.e. do it by hand.
