That will work, but because of a limitation in Milter, the message
won't be filtered even if there's more than one recipient.  Thus, if
there are two recipients: windoze_user at mydomain.com and honeypot at mydomain.com,
then returning ACCEPT_AND_NO_MORE_FILTERING for honeypot will *also* not
filter the mail for windoze_user.

The "correct" way to do this is to stream by recipient and then make
your decisions in filter_begin/filter/filter_end.  This has downsides too,
notably the burden of generating bounce messages if a message that was
streamed is subsequently rejected.
