Specify message in error- or discard-agent "triple" RHS delivery-agent operator

Beginning with V8.7, the RHS of a rule used to select an error or discard delivery agent can look like this:

 R...          $#error $@  dsn  $:  text of error message here  R...          $#discard $: discard 

For the error delivery agent, the text following the $ : is the actual error message text that will be included in bounced mail or sent back to a connecting SMTP host. For the discard delivery agent, the text following the $ : is generally the literal word discard . [13]

[13] Actually it can be anything because the text is ignored anyway.

Use of $ : to specify the error delivery agent's error message is described in detail in error. Use of $ : to specify the discard delivery agent is described in discard.
