I'm seeing the same thing here as I'm rejecting messages that don't
contain a Date header.  From yesterday's logs I see:

2006-04-06 15:28:38 1FRVTS-0000Vg-6r H=iport.americangreetings.com [216. 
33.97.79] I=[138.38.32.21]:25 F=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> rejected after DATA: ...

(the rejection was because of no Date header present)

and the trace information from the rejectlog is:

Received: from iport.americangreetings.com ([216.33.97.79])
      by roche.bath.ac.uk with smtp  id 1FRVTS-0000Vg-6r
      for [EMAIL PROTECTED]
      (return-path <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>); Thu, 06 Apr 2006 15:28:38 +0100

so again the message arrived directly from an americangreetings.com
server.  Now I've looked, I can see several other examples of this.
