I'm contemplating some unsavoury rewriting of incoming mail to make
bloated mails better suited for my personal devices. milter looks like
an easier fit, yes.

Looking into hacking mimedefang for my needs. Seems it is intended for
this kind of hacking, but starting from almost-scratch with a bare-bones
smtp proxy would be cleaner, and maybe more educational for me.

Process of implementing might even educate me to the point where I
realize I should not be doing this :-)

More features is not what I'm looking for. Quite happy with some rbls
and rspamd milter.
