Unfortunately, by the time the message gets to us it is sometimes just
different enough that the original pattern cannot be found. There are
some folks who consistently have success, and some who occasionally
have problems, and a few who always have a problem.

The best solution is to include the headers during the scan since they
will travel with the message. The next best is to automate matching
the log entries with the message so they can be included with the
submission (some do this to prevent the "second trip").
