[Mimedefang] Tagging defanged messages for procmail filter

That's one of the great things about MIMEDefang, you can add any custom header 
you wish.  Just add a new X- header and filter based on that.  My understanding 
is that any header that begins with X- is considered a custom header and other 
programs are supposed to ignore them.  So you could do this:

action_add_header('X-Attachment-Removed', 'yes');

Or whatever, and then use procmail or some other filtering system to move your 
message based on the presence of the header...
