Yeah.  Lately I've been modifying my CVM installations to support
distinct "I dunno" and "No such user" exit codes, which makes a setup
like this possible (if cvm-vmailmgr says "I dunno" cvm-chain goes on
to cvm-qmail, but if it says "I *do* know and there's no such user"
cvm-chain reports failure).  I can probably dig out the patches if
anybody's interested.
