You are correct, and cutthrough is incompatible with adding any headers after
the point of receiving the header/body boundary. This is because we are
copying incoming bytes verbatim to the outbound. Both data and dkim ACLs are
affected.

At the very least this a documentation lack, and we should probably issue
warning lag messages. Header-removal ditto.


Note that a data-ACL deny is reasonable; although it wastes transmission effort
and the outbound peer's cpu, the connection is terminated without an SMTP-level
end-of-data mark so the mail is not transferred there. I'm loath to do similar
on discovery that a header-add was requested in the data ACL.
