Vista - schema validating an incoming message

All,

I would like to schema validate an incoming message before I process it
w/ indigo. If the message is not schema valid, I would like to send
back an exception to the caller. If the message is valid, it processes
normally.

I have created a service that accepts and returns generic
System.ServiceModel.Message objects. This gives me total control of the
message contents, however it also bypasses the automatic serialization
and makes the contract really generic. You cannot generate objects via
svcutil since everything is a basic message.

Are there any other hooks within Indigo that I can use to run schema
validation as the message arrives, perhaps the Channel provides something?

Thanks,
Damon
