Yes, this can be done, but because it is not the normal function of an
MTA it is "non-standard". Dr Hazel wrote Exim with considerable flexibility
and you can do almost anything you wish (if you must) to a message using
a local_scan() function. The exim variables and functions for accessing and
adding headers are made available to the local_scan() function; you just
need to write the C, Perl, Python, etc. to make it do what you wish - from
the response you have had so far I doubt you will get much help on this
list with the coding though!
