Postfix doesn't have a plugin framework for capturing delivery status. Use a log scraper instead of trying to write something into postfix. Even better, syslog can pipe output directly to a program that can capture the interesting bits. This will take you 1/10 the development time, and won't break every time postfix is updated. -- Noel Jones
