No this just updates the non-standard Errors-To: header which *NOONE* 
should be using but some incompetent programmers have made their software 
to use or prefer.  There are NO headers that should affect where error 
bounces go, but due to blatantly incompetent programmers who haven't read a 
single RFC and who are unable to even write bounce processing anyway. 
Lotus/IBM/Domino Notes, this means you.

As was mentioned in your before quoted reply, the return path is really 
only malleable from DISTRIBUTE jobs directly.  Why do you want to do your 
own bounce processing anyway?  You'll not do as good a job as ListServ.
