Actually, I'd really want to know how to configure Postfix to
add a header for each blocking service checked:
X-Maybe-Spam-RBL: [the text from the TXT record here]
X-Maybe-Spam-ORBS: [the text from the TXT record here]
X-Maybe-Spam-DUL: [the text from the TXT record here]
With qmail, which is what I have done a lot and know well,
that'd be easy due to the modular nature. With postfix,
I stare at the documentation and see nothing that fits,
and can't see the building blocks to implement that myself.
Please tell me how to do it.

Well, postfix has had security bugs, qmail hasn't.
