Absolutely. You said you are using Postfix for incoming and out going mail.
This means that this person's internet email MUST pass through postfix and
presumes that he isn't using a hotmail account. So just have Postfix pipe all
mail to a bash script that greps for this guy's email address. If it finds
the guy's email address then pipe the message to tee which in turn appends
the message to an mbox file of your choosing and pipes the message with the
sendmail command. If his email address isn't found then simply pipe the
message to the sendmail command, skipping the tee.
I suspect you would really like the script to do the job but I'm afraid I
haven't the time right now. This script would only need to be about three or
four lines long. The time is in the testing and debugging.
