I suggest that someone look at the design that Sendmail used for SMTP
hooks in recent versions -- the milter API:

    http://www.sendmail.com/de/partner/resources/development/milter_api/

That's a C API, although we have a product which gives a Perl API.

   
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Reference/Products/PerlMx/lib/PerlMx.html

I suspect the milter API has very little overlap in 'details' w/ a
subversion hook API, but I get the impression from talking to the PerlMx
developers that the milter API is quite powerful, so they must have done
_something_ right =).
