You can combine the Postfix content filter mechanism with the 'hold'
action. For example:
/etc/postfix/master.cf:
smtp .. .. .. .. smtpd
-o smtpd_client_restrictions=static:hold
-o content_filter=foo:bar
(note: no space around the '=').
See FILTER_README for content filter options.
Issue the 'postsuper -H' command to release a message and have its
content inspected.
You can programmatically inspect the queue with "postqueue -j" (JSON
output, available with Postfix 3.1 and later) or "postqueue -p"
(roll your own parser).
