But the mail could later be filtered etc., so it's a bit early for the
external program to run. I want it to run only if the delivery has been
guaranteed, like as the last content filter through pipe. Nevermind the
body overhead. Possible?
You could replace the virtual(8) delivery agent by a program of your own,
by adding an entry in master.cf and pointing "virtual_transport" to it.

http://www.postfix.org/master.5.html

maildrop has good possibilities to exec external progs
If I understood Wietse correctly, You MUST use one of Postfix's deliver
programs in master.cf:
local, virtual, pipe, smtp.
as the interface to the queue manager is not published and is subject
to change without notice.
I might as well write my own thin wrapper for virtual and be done:
#!/bin/sh
# do not read the body, but do my own actions based on RCPT TO
...
# and finally...
exec /path/to/postfix/virtual $@
and change in master.cf:
virtual unix - n n - -
/path/to/my/virtual-wrapper
