I call procmail in filter mode to do this because I didn't want to deal with the mailbox locking issues when trying to write email to a file from a mimedefang filter. I also wanted mbox format which procmail does very well.

Another reason for this is the mail headers are not absolutely complete when the milter is called so mimedefang doesn't see the last received header which I wanted to capture anyway.

If you already use procmail for your LDA then this is trivial, but I am using the cyrus LDA.

As far as the performance hit goes, there is some, but I would MUCH rather call procmail than non persistent perl.

I have two similar needs for sending mail to an additional recipient.
Our security department has asked for the ability to have a copy of all
mail to/from a given single address or entire domain  sent to a security
mailbox in addition to the original destination.  The equivalent of an
email wire tap
I would also like to be able keep a copy of all mail received for a brief
period of time to hand sort for initial Bayes training.

Has anyone used MimeDefang to do something like this?
