[Mimedefang] Changing received header

Can MimeDefang be used for this so that when mail is sent from a script 
running under the Apache web server user, the rejected or bounced mail gets 
returned to the address in the From: field instead of to the apache user on 
the actual web server?

Hopefully the below better illustrates what I am trying to do.  The bounce 
is sent to the apache user account instead of the user in the From: 
field.  As a result the server admin gets all the bounces and would like 
them to go directly to the user in the From: field instead.

Thanks and regards,
Robin
