Cloning/Splitting Mail at SMTP level

Hello all!

    I've just subscribed to this mailing list to receive
help with the 
MIMEDefang process and to see if anyone has came across the
current 
scenario that I have.
We currently have a decent amount of customers on our
mailing system.  
Our spam has decreased some since the application of our
spam appliance 
but would like to test
issues further with comparing spam messages tag as spam to
the original 
email it originated from.  Obviously this would be a per
user basis as 
we have honey pots that continually get new spam.

    After a couple hours of searching on the Internet I've
come up with 
this mailing list, and was wondering if anyone has used
MIMEDefang in an 
application similar to this situation?  Can MIMEDefang do
these 
processes at the SMTP level so mail that comes in get's
scanned by our 
spam appliance, and also send to another external account
for analysis? 
Thanks to all in advance

Sure.  Pseudocode in filter_end:

foreach my $recip (Recipients) {
	add_recipient(localpart($recip) . 'test.example.com');
}

You then configure a box to accept mail for
"test.example.com"

Is anyone doing something like this to have archive/backup
copies or 
comply with email retention regulations?  In that case you'd
have to 
treat local and remote recipients differently.

Yes, I am. I generating one hash lookup table of all
mailboxes that require
a copy to be made.
After resolving all my aliases to a mailbox, I add_recipient
for
'mailbox'copydomain.com if I find it in my hash table.
Naturally, I only apply this to domains I am accepting email
for and I don't
allow mailbox LHS clashes across my different domains.
It gets a little more complex without that restriction.

Cheers
Roland
