Unfortunately it is not clear from your description how the mail is being
handled. When you say "This java application POP's it's email", is it
always POPing from a single mailbox, or could it POP from various
mailboxes? Anyway, if you just want to add a header when you know the
envelope recipient, just pipe the message through this filter:
formail -A "X-envelope-to: $recipient"
If the recipient is not defined then that is another story . . .
