Isn't that the plan for the header and mime cache table? It would
certainly make sense to be able to disable parse-on-delivery if you only
use POP, but most people probably use all IMAP or a mixture of the two.

I'm concerned that the intended recipient won't have any notification that
a message almost came through. The postmaster gets a copy to know that
something
