Jon,

See man mimedefang-filter

       action_quarantine_entire_message($msg)
               Quarantines  the  entire  message  in a quarantine 
directory on the mail server, but does not otherwise affect disposition 
of the message.  If "$msg" is non-empty, it is included in any administrator
               notification.

It is not an alternative to INPUTMSG as it saves everything using 
multiple files.

For example...

-rw-r-----    1 defang   defang     149642 Sep 14 13:16 ENTIRE_MESSAGE
-rw-r-----    1 defang   defang       1247 Sep 14 13:16 HEADERS
-rw-r-----    1 defang   defang         17 Sep 14 13:16 RECIPIENTS
-rw-r-----    1 defang   defang         31 Sep 14 13:16 SENDER
-rw-r-----    1 defang   defang         15 Sep 14 13:16 SENDMAIL-QID
