The intend of this function is different.

But look into add_recipient(), though, the original sender might get a 
bounce, if the delivery fails.

However, in minutes you have a working function by copy'n'paste'ing from 
stream_by_recipient() :)

Alternatively, the complete message is located in "./INPUTMSG", if your 
filter user can write to the backup store, you can do so right in filter() 
or filter_end() directly. (see man mimedefang-protocol)
