You /could/ configure snort to do this, using the tag: functionality, but 
IMHO, this would not be the best place to do it. Far better to use some 
kind of SMTP proxy or dedicated email archiving solution. Examples of these 
include products by ilumin.com and mimesweeper.com.

Similarly, but I'd recommend an HTTP proxy. Squid will suffice.

Best Regards,
