Sounds like you've got a broken trust path then. This test should stop with the machine that delivered mail to your network, it should not apply further out. Of course, if SA's guesses about your network boundaries are wrong, it will obviously get the wrong result. This is typical if your mailserver is NATed. http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/TrustPath
