Parsing out of headers could be rather interesting... what about a 
message copied to 2 lists - its not going to get replicated is it?

Can you just pass the target address one the command line to the auto 
script - makes life a *lot* easier.

Alternatively, all the exim stuff does is a file existence test on a 
transformed address - sure that ought to be relatively easy to postfix.
