16 Received lines are reached rather fast:
Some user deep in the mail hierarchy of a company network sends email to
a mailing list that delivers to another user also deep in the mail
hierarchy of an other company network that bounces the mail to some
user on your system. Not so uncommon, IMHO.

And: qmail e.g. adds usually two Received: lines to each message:

Received: (qmail 98445 invoked from network); 6 Oct 1999 20:57:27 -0000
Received: from mail.space.net (195.30.0.8)
  by popmail.space.net with SMTP; 6 Oct 1999 20:57:27 -0000
