Description
When importing from mailboxes or using the archiver, there may be the occasional e-mails that fail to parse correctly.
As far as I can tell, these are just dropped at present.
It might be useful to optionally store these in a separate quarantine area where they could be examined and rerouted as necessary.

Research direction
Start by tracing the mailbox import and archiver paths to find where unparsable e-mails are currently dropped. Define how optional quarantine storage and later rerouting should work, then verify that malformed messages are retained without changing normal imports.
