Re: [BLUG] Postfix email router

Well, some people use them in their procmail rules or whatever. I'd
prefer for them to be accurate, meaning showing the original destination
address. I know the To: line shows that but if some people are already
counting X-Original-To being right, then......

I think Wietse thought I was doing some kind of content filtering that
was rewriting that line, but I'm not AFAIK. I was doing greylisting for
a bit, but I turned that off and am having the same problem.
