newer postfix versions wont do that by default:

man 8 cleanup
...
       Available in Postfix version 2.6 and later:

       always_add_missing_headers (no)
              Always add (Resent-) From:, To:, Date: or Message-
              ID: headers when not present.
...

I appreciate that setting because it clarify the job of creation
versus message transport.
Goal: an MTA does not/only minimal change the content.
