In your router which handles the local delivery:
headers_add = X-Delivered-To: $local_part@$domain
Then you always know that header will indicate who your mail server
thought it was delivering mail for.

The question doesn't make sense. Local delivery means NOT using smtp.
The only instance I can think of that doesn't apply is if you have
front end mail servers which handle spam/virus scanning, and backend
mail servers which actually have storage for the users' Maildir's.
But even then, you'd typically use LMTP instead of SMTP to get from
the frontend to the backend.

I don't understand the question I guess. This is the Received header
for an email that was delivered locally from an external source:
Received: from exprod7og114.obsmtp.com ([64.18.2.215]
helo=mail-qg0-f43.google.com)
by m.ivenue.com with smtp (Exim 4.84)
(envelope-from <harestad@???>)
id 1XR2F0-0002l3-Op

This header says quite plainly who the email was destined for. What
use case do you have that the above information is not accurate or
sufficient?
