This would only suit my set-up if I could direct selected mails to the box, and allow all other mail to be delivered as per usual. For mailing-lists or foreign domains, any virtual domains or address rewriting in Postfix will usually trap outgoing mail to these addresses and rewrite them back to a local address. The scripting would need to work only on the incoming mails, which I guess means using procmail in some way. This does however add an extra layer of complexity to the mail situation.
