2.6.6, though many years past EOL, is indeed later than 2.6, so WHEN 
[the listed headers are] NOT PRESENT they are added ONLY WHEN CLIENTS 
MATCH THE local_header_rewrite_clients PARAMETER SETTING.  That's the 
default setting of "no" for always_add_missing_headers.

The Postfix 2.5 and prior behavior was to ALWAYS add these headers if 
missing, regardless of the client address.
