OK then lets take a look at the tags you hit on. Right away you notice FROM_AND_TO_SAME -- so there's 1.3 points your recievers probably won't get. A large portion of your message is in UPPERCASE. If you can reformat the message so that less of it is in uppercase you can pass that check.

The bottom line is you can not control what recievers consider spam. You can put a note in the bottom of the message warning them, or at the time they subscribe warning them, but it's up to the users to decide to filter or not filter a message.

My concern is that when I send mail to someone else, their spam filter
might block it...

Add your sending address to the whitelist_from.

Razor just make a 'hash' of the message which is anonymous esp. in that
you  can get collisions like this one.  Think of it as a really bad
photocopy or  one of those government documents with all the really
important stuff  blacked out.  It's useful in that you can tell that you
recieved basically  this message but not exactly the contents of it.

Check out the SpamAssassin dox for more info, but the problem isn't with
Razor, you really need to add a whitelist_from for your sendint address

I have a script I run from a cron job that emails myself with my
employer's stock quote at the end of each trading day.  I was shocked
to find that today's e-mail is flagged by SpamAssassin as spam!  This
is new - it has never been flagged as spam before.

The reason I'm posting to razor-users is because the main reason it
was labeled as spam was the RAZOR_CHECK rule.  How can I prevent this
in the future?

I have a connection through AT&T Broadband (cable modem).  Is that
why?

Most of my mail goes through a smarthost (my webhosting ISP,
sasquatch.com) so it probably won't affect that.  What's the solution?

Here's the SpamAssassin report for the email in question:
