Yes, but it is among the relays in the Received: headers, so I thought this is how it determines the last external server, or the first trusted server, as the case may be? > Do you have some kind of system that queues and re-delivers mail locally > over a SMTP loopback?

Isn't that sufficient and correct? Thanks, Alex
