For the fact that it will not work, I have to say that it is working

That depends on how you define "work". It's not doing what you want
it to, so I'd say it's not really working.
The purpose of xfilter is not only to send the message to an external
script ("to" or "cc" can do that), but to replace the message with the
output of the external script. Even in an included file, that isn't
allowed in embedded mode.
That is what I mean when I say that it will not work. You will not
achieve your goal of adding headers by means of maildrop's embedded mode.
Your statement sounded very much like maildrop's embedded mode will not
work at all to do scanning during the SMTP session.
My goal is to reject spam, not add headers.
I have used 'xfilter' simply because I hoped adding headers would be
possible. The 'xfilter' command was doing what I wanted it to do (check
for spam), just without achieving one of its documented effects as I now
know. Sam Varshavchik cleared that up to me, so I switched to using
backticks instead of 'xfilter' and my scan command is now "spamc --check
--exitcode" to avoid a possible overhead from reading SpamAssassin's
stdout back in.
