The problem is that the recipient will get a message from me with no
subject and no body in the

could filter my outgoing
mail, I could for example kill all message I sent with no subject in them.
But I do not
find any example of this in the man pages.
Just a rough sketch:
:0
<conditions to determine if the mail is related to the game>
{
# Generate a reply header
:0fh
| formail -r ...
# Process the command
:0f
| your_program
# If the command contains an error, the subject header if empty
SUBJECT=`formail -zxSubject:`
# If we have a subject, the command was processed correct, so we send the
# mail
:0
* SUBJECT ?? .
| $SENDMAIL -t
# Otherwise, we put the message in a folder for manual intervention
:0:
typo_folder
}
This will only work if your command parser leaves the original message
when it can't process a command.
