There is now a "Scan Messages" configuration option which
enables/disables *all* scanning and processing of mail. If any of the
sender+recipients of the message want scanning, then it is scanned for
everyone. This may well be a simpler solution to what you are trying to
achieve.
The only function that is not covered by "Scan Messages" is the "Archive
Mail" archiving (as that isn't really scanning or processing, and is
very useful at times).
