You can get a fair wait with regexp based recipient_bcc_maps, which
allow you to capture the original envelope recipient. Merge message
copies are not sufficient IMHO as headers are not accurate/complete.

I usee a "tee" proxy that sends an encapsulated archive copy and the real
message in parallel (archive "." immediately precedes message "." and
blocks message delivery on failure).

If my response solves your problem, the best way to thank me is to not
send an "it worked, thanks" follow-up. If you must respond, please put
"It worked, thanks" in the "Subject" so I can delete these quickly.
