The part of the message, where you quote someone, and it says "So-and-so
writes:" (or words along those lines). That's the attribute line. You're
attributing what you're quoting to who said it.

Again, that's a choice you should make as far as the Orbz lookups. There
are those who don't like the policies of the person who used to run it.
You should look into them and see if you are comfortable with rejecting
mail based on their recommendations. I don't have a problem with them
(especially since MAPS went commercial and now wants you to pay in order to
do a DNS lookup against their servers), but you might. As I said, check
orbd.org and orbz.org websites, look things over, and then decide.
But yea, not having to grow your header_checks *is* a good thing. :-)
