What about just stopping processing of a message once you see the confirm?
Is that reasonable? What are the chances of there being multiple confirms or
commands in a single message? Is it reasonable to restrict it to one command
per e-mail in this case, so you can exit before sending an error?

Could you keep state, and if you've seen a confirm and acted, exit without
the error?
