    What I would desire is this:

    /xyzzy/ OK
    /spam/ REJECT

    Where the rules are executed in order, and as soon as an "OK" is found
    then processing is stopped. Since "OK" is a valid token in the
    body_checks and header_checks parameters, I can only assume that this has
    at least been considered before.

    Currently the body_checks (and header_checks) are an all-or-nothing
    affair. Either you execute ALL of the rules on every line of the
    message, or you don't use the feature.

    In the email you replied to, I was merely illustrating to Michael Brennen
    (mbrennenfni.com) that "IGNORE" wouldn't give me the functionality I
    need.

    I've downloaded the source to postfix-1.1.11-20020928 and I'm looking to
    see how hard it would be to have "OK" cease all body_check processing.

    Best regards,
    Michael
