Now, I'm not sure of what you mean by "rewriting", but at least the
local mail delivery agent *must* add itself to "To:" and "Cc:" fields
that do not have any host/domain on it. Otherwise it will be impossible
for somebody else to reply.

If host1!tom sends

    To: host2!dick
    Cc: harry

then host2!dick *must* receive this with

    From: host1!tom
    To: host2!dick
    Cc: host1!harry

which is *not* as Tom typed it(!), but makes it possible for Dick to
reply both to Tom and Harry instead of trying to reach "Local Harry".
