Thank you.

This kind of happens already. Exim adds a header called
X-rewrote-original-recipient that contains the original recipient
address. However, the header is marked "deleted" on the spool, so it
does not get transmitted with the message. I think my idea was to have
the information available for the sysadmin while the message was on the
spool - but this is very old code that has not been touched for years.

I'll WishList an item to make a better option for a real header.
