The problem with redefining the address with
"new_address=$local_part@$domain" is that Exim seems to processes it as
though it were a different address. The result is directors get re-executed
a second time for the same address.

Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but it causes the header to be added
twice and auto-replies are issues twice.
