How can I make sendmail recognize when procmail fails to deliver one mail

Procmail recognizes when it fails because of quota exceeded and prints an
appropriate syslog message, but it seems to return the EX_CANTCREAT exit
status (which is collected by sendmail) for any kind of failure, being the
failure caused by quota or by any other reason.
Well, what error code do you think it should return? There is no
specific error code allocated for this, so you would have to define
your own then hack both the procmail and sendmail sources to generate
and recognize it.
