    I'm currently looking into stabbing at alterMIME source to produce
    desired headers, as suggested by Tony Earnshaw.

    Configurable headers are not yet supported - is there a plan to support
    them, and if, when? What kind of support is planned?

    At least for my purposes, it is required that content of the header
    comes from an external program. I might as well explain the whole
    situation; we need to have all incoming mail tagged with a unique
    header, and idea was to do TIMESTAMP-RANDOMSUFFIX type header. I can
    easily make eg. python script to produce the header, but glueing it to
    postfix is wholly other matter. Also, python is quite slow for this so
    perhaps I need to do it in C.
