Why do you need to re-inject? By the time a transport is selected,
exim is already chomping at the bit to deliver the message. A
transport_filter just changes the contents of the message but not the
metadata or how it's gonna be delivered. What's the problem with just
proceeding with delivery after the filter runs?
