I'd be happy with something like that (although maybe header_add since you
can group it nicely with future things like header_remove and header_modify
or whatever) :)

I guess I just have lots of header issues ;D I can wait until header stuff
can be hopefully reworked though!

If you use message with accept, it will use it as an error message if
the accept cause rejection. For example:

accept  domains = +local domains
        endpass
        message = unknown user
        verify = recipient


It looks like overloading "message" was a bad idea. Perhaps there should
be "add_header" instead.
