In the above example, "accept" is the verb.  Think about English, the
verb is the "doing" part of a sentence.  So valid verbs are
accept/deny/warn etc.  The item you are labeling is the "condition".
It's a loose label since some "conditions" are outside of the scope of
checking a return value, for example in this contrived, fictional ACL
stanza:

    accept   logwrite = Message made it to this stage
                 set acl_m_passed = "Passed RBLs and reputation, but
still have to do \
                                         Virus and Spam tests in a later ACL"

In the above stanza, the verb is "accept".  Neither "condition" is
really testing anything, just doing actions (writing to the log file
and setting a variable) but behind the scenes, both are really
returning a True value to the accept verb.
