I know there's been a lot of talk on the ALL_TRUSTED rule, but I don't
remember seeing this issue and couldn't find it in a search of the list
archives.

We've gotten several spams recently that made it through because they hit
the ALL_TRUSTED rule.  We have a standard setup and haven't had trouble with
this rule before, so I ran one of the messages through spamassassin -D.  The
debug output showed:

debug: received-header: parsed as [ ip=71.8.49.195

Notice that the IP the spams came from is marked as a "reserved IP" and
apparently because of this it's being flagged as trusted.  What is a
reserved IP and how can I tell spamassassin that this IP isn't one?

Thanks as always for any light you can shed on this!
