That is very bad.
Note that any E-mail failing the BADHEADERS test is likely to get caught on
other servers, as well.

That is correct, unless you disable those tests, or set the weight to
0. The IGNORE action only affects the test that it is used with, and does
not take away the weight for that test.

I often get mail from people using Eudora and Incredimail, and they do not
fail the BADHEADERS test. So it is likely a problem with the specific
version(s) that you are running, or a setup error.
There is a bug in some versions of Eudora that can cause the BADHEADERS
test to fail if an IP address is entered as the name of the server. Eudora
will accept this, but assume that it is a host name (not an IP), so when it
generates the Message-ID: header, it uses the format for a hostname rather
than an IP, which breaks the header.
If you post the full headers of one of the E-mails that was caught
(actually, one for Eudora and one for Incredimail would be best), I can
take a look to see what is wrong.
