Can someone take a look at the headers on this email and tell me why it
failed badheaders?  I'd like to hold on that test (since it is supposed to
be such a small % of FP), but the first (and today only) message that failed
the test after starting the hold is from CBS Marketwatch. They have several
other problems with their emails (why we subtract weight in a custom
whitelist), but I didn't spot the header problem. Too bad big companies
can't be bothered to fix their systems, but they know we'll "work around"
their errors, while they can ignore small companies complaints.

Like many companies attempting to get by whitelists of the receiving domain,
they add our entire domain name in the sender side of their address (before
the "@" sign). Their REVDNS ends in .in-addr.arpa. Their sending server has
no MX or A records. A few other "problems" we add weight for, but the
"whitelist" value of -100 offsets the over 40 points that would have
otherwise been added.
