Subject: [Exim] headers_rewrite and system-filter-generated headers
According to spec.txt, headers_rewrite is used at transport time to
rewrite headers. And it says:

    "However, only the message's original header lines, and any
    that were added by a system filter, are rewritten."


But it doesn't seem to rewrite headers added by a system filter.
I demonstrated this by adding

    headers add "Reply-to: wmb@k2di"


to my system filter and passing the same header to exim as input.
The transport's headers_rewrite command converts such addresses to
"k2di2@???" -- but only the line passed as input was rewritten.

I'm using version 4.20.
