I added the "opt BOFHSPFFROM=all" entry to Courier so that it would add
the Received-SPF header to incoming email.  I was hoping to be able to
have SpamAssassin parse that header rather than doing its own checks.
Unfortunately, SA ignores the header since it is placed at the bottom of
the header list rather than inline with the rest of the Received headers.

Is there a reason for this?  Is there a way to have Courier add the
Received-SPF header at the top of the list rather than the bottom?

This is the SPF check on the From: header. The From: header always appears after all Received: headers. Courier wouldn't know what the From: header has, until it reads it. Courier does not buffer all headers, and then insert the Received-SPF header in the middle of it; it is going to read all headers, and append the Received-SPF header as the last header.

There's also a second SPF header that can be enabled for the address in the SMTP MAIL-FROM. That one will be inserted before all other headers, together with Courier's Received: header.
