No, it is broken and wrong even when the script is given. Mail simply
does NOT work this way, and delivery to header addresses is dangerous
and misguided. Mail loops, lost recipients, misdirected email, ...
Perhaps you could explain why mail to this domain must be handled by
a script, and why the script needs to ignore the actual recipients of
the message and risk serious breakage by attempting to reconstruct the
recipient list from the headers.
