If you're trying to do what I think you're trying to do... which is
actually what I think you just described above.
just put a plugin that hooks the 'queue' hook and returns OK before
qmail-queue runs if the note is set.
here's some not quite valid code, but you should get the idea..
sub hook_data_post {
if ( $data->from == "badguy" ) {
$transaction->notes{'sideline'} = 1;
}
return DECLINED
}
sub hook_queue {
if ( $transaction->notes{'sideline'} ) {
return OK;
}
return DECLINED;
}
We do something like this at perl.org. I should extract the plugin
and check it in.
