Do you mean a hard failure? Reject the message? I'm not sure that is
sensible. You'd start rejecting things when a nameserver went offline for
a short time, or a network connection got chopped.

In any case, can't you achieve this particular result using "require"?

require condition = ${if eq{$host_lookup_failed}{0}{1}{0}}

(In the forthcoming release, that can be neater:

require condition = ${if eq{$host_lookup_failed}{0}}
)


Or have I misunderstood?
