I was told of this several months ago and thought it was a great idea.
I was about to implement it here until I realized the amount of
overhead it would entail per message.  Sendmail calls those rewrite
rules a LOT.

Still, the current rewrite language IS rather inscrutable.  Any
suggestions for a replacement?  I think the current parse code could
be excised without too much difficulty.
