I have been running spamassassin in default install mode for a few

Where should I start in troubleshooting this type of issue?
Post a sample of such a false negative - including _all_ headers, in plain
text - to a pastebin site or a website you can publish files on, and send
the URL to the list. If we can see what's happening, we can make concrete
suggestions.
I have not had the time to really get deep into custom rule sets,
Don't worry about custom rules right away. Lets first make sure all the
basics are properly configured, and you haven't fallen into some of the
pitfalls waiting for new SA admins (such as using whitelist_from).
I even got a particular email that listed a different name as the
recipient, and gave that name in the heading of the email, but it was
still addressed to me.
That's how BCC works.
