I reported this a long time ago, basically, the courier received line does
not match the tests applied by Spam Assassin... this results in false
positives on thinks like SORBS and DYNA_BLOCK for your own authenticated
users...

I've seen numerous courier users complain about this, and the suggestion to
them is to reduce the score of various rules, which unfortunately reduces
the effectiveness of SA...

I'm not a PERL guy. Some experience with it, but not enough... Got this
message from Theo - it seems that the SA developers use different mail
servers, and would need sample headers, and cooperation from courier users
to test... it's on the list for 3.0, so if someone wants to help, would be
nice for everyone to be able to use those rules again.

So there is the reference to the code, I can post some example Received
headers, wanted to make sure I was posting correct stuff - not sure if I
remember 100% on Lloyds ID patch acceptance, but it would probably effect
the situation as well - should be optional to cover the bases, but I thought
that this would be the best place to get the gammut of header variations
over recent history so that a working regex can be developed.

Thanks
