I'm not sure inventing another header is such a good idea, esp. since a
fully expanded Received header should already contain this info:

     received    =  "Received"    ":"            ; one per relay
                       ["from" domain]           ; sending host
                       ["by"   domain]           ; receiving host
                       ["via"  atom]             ; physical path
                      *("with" atom)             ; link/mail protocol
                       ["id"   msg-id]           ; receiver msg id
                       ["for"  addr-spec]        ; initial form


The "for" clause, i.e. the "initial form", is normally the address
specified in the RCPT TO command for the given relay.

Exim doesn't seem to provide the "for" clause by default, but I'm sure
it could.
