In filter_begin, I have the following at the top of the function:

return if (is_trusted_ip($RelayAddr));

In filter and filter_multipart, I have:

return if (message_rejected());
return action_accept() if (is_trusted_ip($RelayAddr));

In filter_end, I have:

return if (message_rejected());
if (is_trusted_ip($RelayAddr))
  {
  do_outgoing();
  return;
  }

Just substitute your own function in place of "is_trusted_ip" to do 
whatever checks you need to decide if the mail is from an internal (or 
trusted) source.  Then, in place of my "do_outgoing", do whatever you 
need to do to add the header.
