The problem with defer_if_reject is that it applies to all subsequent
restrictions, too. For that to work as described, the Spamcop lookup
must be the final restriction.

The better solution is rbl_reply_maps and a 454 result. It works for a
small site, but probably wouldn't scale well, because some servers are
continually being relisted at Spamcop (notably some of the gmail
outbound relays.)
