Hallo.

See, it's a matter of efficiency. Rather than receiving a message, saving its contents into a file, and then rereading the file again to parse the message, the message is parsed on the fly, as it is being received and saved into its file. Which means that the parsing part happens pretty much before everything else happens.

Ok, I understand.

So reformatting the MIME-part before filter invocation would cost some performance (because this doesn't need to be done if a filter revokes the message), right? And you want to pass the unmodified received message to the filter, too, I suppose.

I would suggest two possible solutions and it would be cool if you state your opinion. It's just brainstorming, maybe it's nonsense. :)

1. The filter system could be extended to support additional filters that are called after reformatting and are r/w. 2. The filter system could be extended to support additional return codes for acceptance. E.g. code 201 would mean "re-parse the message, it has been modified", while 200 leaves the processing untouched as it is for now.
