It is exactly this, amongst other things, that I'd like to do. I'd
also like to be able to make a Perl function that runs inside Exim that
can also act as an MDA, but that's another topic entirely..

However, $message_body(_end) is often not the entire email, as the
amount of characters pointed to by those variables is limited by some
config setting which I don't remember the name of off the top of my
head. That's why I want -something- I can use to reliably use to get
hold of the entire email body (and headers, but that's already easy).

Perhaps if I set the configuration variable I'm thinking of to a very
high number..
