[vps-mail] reject code in procmail



Hello all,

Just looking at what can be done with procmail and EXITCODE

as one can set EXITCODE=67 on specific case and cause email to bounce
as user unknown, or EXITCODE=77 permission denied, one can cause a
good amount of email just to bounce nicely it seems.

This being the case (please correct me if I am wrong)
is there an EXITCODE for SPAM, i.e. could one be created on a VPS1 (or
VPS2) for a response code saying it is rejected as it looks like SPAM.

i.e. if I set EXITCODE=67 the response looks like the standard..

Now if within Sendmail we could assign EXITCODE=79 (for example) to

   ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
email@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    (reason: Reject as email looks like SPAM)

It would be nice..... any comments?
current exitcodes that I can find are at /usr/include/sysexits.h

cheers,
