Thanks for the answer.  This looks medium complicated.

It's starting to feel like I could do this myself in my favorite
programming language (gawk) simply by writing a library to parse 
the headers and then writing awk code to check things and send emails
to the right place.

If I didn't already have more side projects than I can curently handle ...
