Ah, that's neat. I'll try something like that - of course the
headers_remove has to be conditional, too.

The syntax I have is more complex, because I do address rewriting in the
headers (to support canonical names). For some reason it works in my test
suite, but prevents delivery when I deploy it. I think I may need to
upgrade from 4.63
