If your script is successful, return a zero exit status. If your script
fails in any way and the sender must be notified, return EX_UNAVAILABLE
or some more suitable exit status. If your script fails because of a
transient error condition, return EX_TEMPFAIL to have Postfix retry the
delivery at a later time.

But if you never reinject a message, why implement this as a filter?
