You don't want to do this (no, really). This will turn you into a
spammer, because most spam has forged sender addresses and thus you
will just end up passing the spam to unrelated third parties. If you
want to reject spam, you should do this at SMTP time and need to use the
Exim content scanning extension, formerly known as "Exiscan". Read
this, which explains it all:
