Section 10. Flags controlling the rewriting process
When an address in a header is rewritten, the rewriting normally applies
only to the working part of the address, with any comments and RFC 2822
phrase left unchanged. For example, rewriting might change
From: Ford Prefect <fp42@???>
into
From: Ford Prefect <prefectf@???>
Sometimes there is a need to replace the whole address item, and this
can be done by adding the flag letter w to a rule.
There are more specifics on the page.
I imagine this could be achieved using some jiggery-pokery with ${extract{1}{<} ...
