Oh, that would be too simple... ;-)

You can indeed copy the mail to Outbox. But how do you change the To:
header? And Cc: is preserved... That really can get nasty.

The problem is, how to change the recipient. And before that hack the
answer always was 'no, not possible'. You even don't have the option of
a 'pipe to shell script' Action...
