Well, it should be. Please give more details of the configuration that
is failing.
Oh, wait. As you were. It's a timing problem. The headers_add and
headers_remove options are expanded at the start of the transport,
before it starts connecting to different hosts. So yes, at that time
$host_address won't be set.
The only way to do what you want is to use a transport filter. That's
expensive in resource terms.
