According to http://www.postfix.org/CONTENT_INSPECTION_README.html,
header_checks and body_checks implement light-weight content
inspection. If you have a spam problem, use a real content filter.

Most header_checks and body_checks actions say "do X and inspect
the next input line".  Only a few actions are "final", including
DISCARD and REJECT.

Also as documented, if-endif have line scope, not message scope.
