A) Use the acl_m variables.

They accompany the message they are born with and can be read, but not (yet) 
modified in the routers and transports.

You can still add headers at the *last* router - based on values in acl_m(n).

B) AFAIK, that part of the spec applies only to headers added/modified during 
the  delivery process. We modify 'Subject:' and add headers in DATA acl's that 
traverse as many a 4 chained 'unseen' routers without loss or alteration.
