Keeping a copy of all mail, and then removing headers from outbound

All our internal machine generated emails are sent through our Postfix
server (which is only used for outbound mail), and then relayed out to a
third party MTA. To be able to integrate all outbound mail to other
services (like CRM), we are adding a few headers (customer number etc) to
the mail that is delivered to Postfix.
What I'm trying to achieve is for Postfix to deliver a copy to a local IMAP
account, and then remove our internal/private headers before passing the
mail on to the relay host. The idea is for some custom software to read the
copy from the IMAP account, using the interal/private headers for
integration with other systems.
Delivering a copy of all mail is easy using the always_bcc option, but
adding header_checks, with an IGNORE instruction for our internal headers,
removes the headers _before_ the local copy is delivered. In other words:
The headers are removed from both our bcc-copy and the one forwarded to the
relayhost.
I understand this is because the cleanup is done before the delivery, but I
don't see how I can configure this to achieve the result I need.
Any tips is highly appreciated. :)
