I wonder if there is a builtin feature to make Postfix switch return

No. To what should the rejection code change?
If not I guess we could use a script and a temporary bounce.cf.
Ideas welcome.
To help you with ideas you must tell us what problem you're trying to
solve.
Right.
Our MX's use a LDAP directory to lookup valid addresses. Now, if this
directory for some reason becomes temporarily unavailable, postfix will
return a 5xx error for ALL incoming messages.
So, the question is if there is a way to tell postfix that IF it cannot
connect to the directory, THEN it should switch to reurn a 4xx error.
As stated, this should be possible through some clever scripting but I
did not want to invent the wheel in case it was already done.
