As I said: Read the man pages.

EXIT CODES
       command's exit codes are interpreted as follows:  0  means
       that the delivery was successful; 99 means that the deliv­
       ery was successful, but that qmail-local should ignore all
       further delivery instructions; [...]

Doesn't "ignore all further delivery instructions" sound like something

$ cat .qmail-yourfilter
|here-is-a-script-that-exits-99-if-the-sender-is-invalid
&[EMAIL PROTECTED]

That entirely depends on what you want to do.
