If time was a cheap and infinite resource, yes, that would be quite easy
to set up.

Note that one may not necessarily want to have a webserver on the same
box as the mail server, so the "Maildir database" would not work here.

My point is, there are lots of additional software for amavisd-new
(here: I would use MailZu) and I wouldn't like to re-invent the wheel
just for Exim.
