If the original poster had control of the last MTA, he wouldn't (shouldn't)
need to resort to such horrible hacks. And parsing the for <...> clause of the
Received: header only works if there's a single recipient; if there are
multiple recipients on the same target host, I believe the for <...> clause
is supressed.
