This is probably the cleanest, and least invasive way of providing what I
personally am convinced is very special-purpose, minority use
functionality. I would, however, probably go for

       control = errorcode=551


rather than invent a whole new modifier. Or possibly even extend
"message" to allow

       message = 551 User not local ....


If this was checked for the first 4 chars being 5dd followed by a space,
it automatically copes when something like 220 is given - it wouldn't be
recognized.
