Actually, this *appeared* to work in testing, but once in production, it
became pretty clear that the exitcode wasn't doing what I had
thought/hoped; keeping bounce messages out of the queue.
The only other way I know of dealing with this at the MDA level is to
route rejected email to /dev/null, which would mean that legit email
caught by SA (there has been some) would be lost without any notification
of the sender, which isn't acceptable.
I know of no way to use SA at the MTA level with qmail, and don't use
Postfix. :-/
