Parsing MailScanner

Sorry to "hijack" the thread, but regarding untouched versions I'd like to
know if there has been any interest/progress in being able to archive only
that which actually gets to the end users' mailbox.

That way I can have a "clean" archive - the only workaround so far I've
been able to come up with is using clamd+clamavmilter (which reduces
server load a little) before MailScanner, and procmail recipes afterwards.

Regards,

Alex
