Yes!  That's exactly it.

Another thing I'd like to do, if possible, is check to see if the "From" 
address matches the "return path" and add to the spam score if they do not 
match.  I know they won't match completely in some cases, but a way to check if 
the same pattern, u...@domain.com exists both in the Return Path AND the From 
field.

I suspect he wants to check to see if the RCPT TO (the actual recipient) 
is named in the TO or CC headers, and score based on this decision.
