This is currently not implemented. Things to consider when
proposing changes to code:
- The same code is also used in local(8) to deliver mail to
"|command". Changes to the pipe(8) delivery agent must not break
deliveries with the local(8) delivery agent.
- While the command output after error is returned to the sender
in DSN "failed" notifications, it not necessarily a good idea to
also return command output with DSN "success" notifications.

No, and there are many reasons for this. First, filter programs
must not access Postfix queue files to implement "extra functionality";
I don't want to make such cheating easy. Second, the queue ID will
change after the filter sends the message back into Postfix.
