I was referring to a request to make the Postfix-generated Received:
header available to Milters, so that they would not have to generate
a fake Received: header from information that the Milter receives
with the smfi_connect() callback.

If the OP made requests other than fixing the inability to replace
or remove his prepended Received-SPF header, then I could not
discern that in the chaotic discussion.

See "I was referring..." above.
