No, because a failed condition causes the driver to be skipped, and
control is passed to the next driver. If you want a special message, you
must put a second director like this:

xxxx:
driver = smartuser
condition = the *opposite* condition !
new_address = :fail: your message here

Of course, you don't need the "condition" if this is the last driver,
and you only get to it in this circumstance.
