Yes, it does. It also preserves To and Cc, which would be enough
information.

That's my problem. Right now I pass all mails to a perl script which
resends the message to all local users that can be found in To and Cc.
But that's not very reliable.

I receive these emails by smtp, how could fetchmail help? There is no
pop3/imap-account involved.

How do I configure a redirect router that extracts the recipients from
Envelope-To?

Thanks for your help!
