I guess that the reason for the spam test being none is that I whitelisted
the [EMAIL PROTECTED] e-mail address, and yes your note on the IP
address is correct as there is an IP address instead of the server name.

Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Badheaders, Eudora and Incredimail
A lot of legitimate e-mail is getting caught because of badheaders.
That is very bad.
Note that any E-mail failing the BADHEADERS test is likely to get caught on
other servers, as well.
Although we have set revdns, noabuse, nopostmaster and routing to ignore
it appears that they add weight when combined.
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.
We've also discovered that the way Eudora and Incredimail write header
information makes most if not all mail originating from these mail clients
be caught as spam because of badheaders
Is there any workaround?
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.
