well, read the current thread by subject "replace Received: from" and
use the information in the specs pointed out by John. Although not
experimented, I would just replace the Received: header with the
string you give below for authenticated senders.

well, it depends on what the for address is for you... I can guess,
it must be the sender. Then look again in the specs!

"$sender_address
When a message is being processed, this variable contains the
sender’s address that was received
in the message’s envelope. For bounce messages, the value of this
variable is the empty string.
See also $return_path."

Clearly, if you do not valdate this address against the
authentication data, it could be forged.
