Subject: [exim] Holding mail per recipient during Maildir relocation

We are in the planning stages of moving mail from one location (within
home directories) to another (a separate storage space). During the
move of an individual's Maildir directory, I would like to hold the
messages for that person and then release them for delivery once the
move is complete. I don't want to stop everyone's mail at one time, but
I'm also not adverse to working through groups of users.

Ideally, Exim would use a text file as the indicator of which mail to
hold. If the recipient is in that file, delivery to that address is not
attempted. This makes it an easy process to update the file.

Any ideas or implementations to do this would be great.

Thanks in advance.
