Filtering features are available through the 'send' scenario customization.
Currently, all you can check are message header fields.
Example :
        ## this rule rejects messages which subject contain the 'forbiden' 
word
        match([header->Subject],/forbiden/)  smtp,smime,md5    -> reject

Development version also provides the following variables :
        o [msg_body] : the message body
        o [msg_part->type] : the message parts content-types
        o [msg_part->body] : the message parts  bodies

This development version, as an alpha version, will be available in a few 
days ;
we'll announce it in sympa-dev ML.

This alpha version will also allow to use a different template with
'reject' action.
Example:
        ## 'bad_words.tpl' will be used instead of standard rejection message
        match([header->Subject],/forbiden/)  smtp,smime,md5    -> 
reject('bad_words')


Does this meet your needs ?

It should be fine...
