Actually, could you fake it by having smail feed the message to a custom
mailer that does the rewriting?  The mailer could just be a simple C
program to mash the appropriate headers and fork the real mailer.

This might be a reasonable way to do it in the long run.  Most people who
have to deal with mutant address formats only have to deal with 1 or 2 of
them, just local neighbors.
