Have you tried shadow_transport for the backup delivery? It should get an
exact copy of the mail for backup.

I use something like this:


  local_delivery:
  driver              = appendfile
   check_string        =
   directory           = ${home}/Maildir/
   create_directory
   directory_mode      = 0700
   delivery_date_add
   envelope_to_add
   group               = mail
   maildir_format
   maildir_tag         = ,S=$message_size
   message_prefix      = ""
   message_suffix      = ""
   use_fcntl_lock
   use_lockfile
   no_mode_fail_narrower
   quota               = ${lookup {$local_part} lsearch \
                      {/usr/local/etc/exim/quota-maps}{$value}{50}}M
   no_quota_is_inclusive
   quota_size_regex    = ,S=(\d+)$
   quota_warn_message  = "\
                        To: $local_part@$domain\n\
                        blah..blah..blah."
   quota_warn_threshold = 75%
   return_path_add
   mode                 = 0660
   shadow_transport     = backup_delivery
   shadow_condition     = ${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{/usr/local/etc/exim/mail_backup_users}{1}{0}}




  backup_delivery:
   driver               = appendfile
   delivery_date_add
   envelope_to_add
   file                 = /Mail-backup/${substr_0_7:$tod_log}/${local_part}
   mode                 = 0600
   user                 = exim
   group                = mail
   return_path_add
