This is easy in mailagent

Hmm. Neither does mailagent by default -- but you can easily
build a new command or plugin into mailagent using MIME::* packages.

Not a problem for mailagent.

This is trivial.

mailagent has awesome debugging facilities. First, you can
trace what rules the mail went through -- and then you can have debug

to have a fine grained log, almost instruction by source instruction,
to track down problems.
