This is probably not important, but only the first service needs
routing=on. Your other ICAP service does not route requests.

OK.

That sounds correct although you are omitting a critical detail:
X-Next-Services is an ICAP response header, not an HTTP header.
Naturally, ICAP routing does not modify the HTTP message being routed.

Googling suggests that the above c-icap method is for adding HTTP
headers. You need to add an ICAP response header instead. I do not know
c-icap API, so I cannot recommend a specific method. If you do not know
how to do that either, consider asking on c-icap support forums.
