Uggh. Yup, That's Dan's style: mention everything exactly once, and only
once. (I'm including the relevant snippet from qmail's man pages below for
others to see.)
Granted that courier isn't qmail, one of its big attractions is it's
compatability. Would it make sense to match the 100 exit code as hard in
future releases of courier? (add case 100 at line 513 of localmail.c?)

% man qmail-command
...
command's exit codes are interpreted as follows: 0 means
that the delivery was successful; 99 means that the delivery
was successful, but that qmail-local should ignore all
further delivery instructions; 100 means that the delivery
failed permanently (hard error); 111 means that the delivery
failed but should be tried again in a little while (soft
error). Currently 64, 65, 70, 76, 77, 78, and 112 are con-
sidered hard errors, and all other codes are considered soft
errors, but command should avoid relying on this.
