It occurs to me that you can implement this yourself. Instead of
defining
transport_filter = /some/command
you can define
transport_filter = "${if first_delivery{/some/command}{something else}}"
Hmm. It seems that there isn't an obvious way to specify "something
else" to mean "don't filter". An empty string is perhaps the obvious
answer; I'll think about that. Meanwhile, if you really wanted to, you
could use a filter that just copied the input to the output.
