You know what I'd like to see on conditions? Looping.

condition = for i in {1 2 3 4 5} { match {$int_spam_score}{$i} {yes}{no} }

Nice :-) I could then actually use one router to scan for matches on
multiple headers, and reject/deny there, instead of having to run
through multiple routers.
If the first {1 2 3 4 5} could be looked up in a database or lsearch'd
a file, then I could even reduce the number of loops I have to pass my
message through (and thereby make it a more efficient process?), instead
of having to do a check against multiple routers.
