Isn't $recipients already used to describe the recipients on the initial
submitted envelope, rather than those which finally get passed in a batch
to a transport? I can already get at the original $recipients by
assigning it to an $acl_m variable in an ACL (acl_check_predata or
acl_check_nonsmtp).

Are there any technical limitations as to why accessing the addr array of
address_items as passed to deliver.c:deliver_local() couldn't be accessed
directly
as a variable rather than only through the $pipe_addresses magic in
transport.c:transport_set_up_command()? If not, then I might have a shot
at writing a patch.

Thanks for the response :)
