I'd suggest if a name is followed by an exclamation mark, this means do a DENYHARD, otherwise it does a plain DENY (ie "tim" - will reject this recipient, "tim !" will reject all emails that include "tim" amongst the recipients).


I think it would be cleaner to do this as a wrapped plugin and two
separate config files.[1]



I think it was better the first time. The two behaviors are isomorphic except in returning one different value for one different input. If it required a
backwards-incomptible change in the config syntax it'd be another matter, but
this seems a natural extension to what the plugin did before which contradicts
no other extensions I can anticipate.


It's also fits well with sendmail's /etc/mail/access file, which (though I
dont' care for the conflation in lookup key) enables particular entries to
trigger various failure codes/messages, enable relaying, etc.

Not crazy about the bang as an errorcode selector, though.  If a line in
badrcptto is doing to trigger a DENYHARD, it may as well say DENYHARD (or DENY
or DISCONNECT or whatever) and eliminate the uncertainty.




What's the real qpsmtpd plugin api syntax, this--?

DENY_DISCONNECT   #hard
DENY_REJECT
