If a single dispatch of the message is to be delivered to more than one ad-
dress on the site, there usually won't be a "for" phrase in the Received:
header. If there is a "for" phrase it is reliable AFAIK, but one cannot
rely on having it.

That may depend on the MTA. I remember testing it with Smail, and the
working directory of shells called in .forward was either the mail spool or
the mail queue directory, or somewhere else similarly related to Smail but
independent of the user. A second destination in .forward of
"|/usr/bin/pwd >> /path/to/my/home/filename"
confirmed it.
