Instead of a command-line option to disable it, how about adding:

1) sub filter_headers() that is called before the body is even sent by 
sendmail to mimedefang, and
2) sub filter_undecoded() that is called before the body is decoded.

Both subroutines could return accept (keep going), tempfail, reject or 
accept_and_no_more_filtering.

filter_headers would be a more efficient way to implement greylisting at the 
DATA phase.

filter_undecoded would be handy for spamtraps that want to do some minimal 
processing or resending without the full-blown overhead of decoding and 
going through filter_begin through filter_end.
