Maybe the lack of Received: headers could be used as the basis for an SA rule. How many legit MTAs are there that don't add Received: headers? Hopefully none.

There are already "direct-to-MX" subrules, and rules that use them in combination with other signs:

Suggestions for likely combinations are welcome, but at this time the masscheck corpora only show less than 5% direct-to-MX spam vs. >20% ham. Whether that's an indication that spambots are in a lull or the corpora doesn't represent actual spam reality well is unclear.
