No typo.. there is indeed no space between the close-paren and "by." Additionally, looking at some upstream headers on some of this spam I see the same thing from other mailers: Received: from p508d7ae3.dip.t-dialin.net (p508D7AE3.dip.t-dialin.net [80.141.122.227])by myhost.mydomain.com (8.13.

I think it was Michael Parker (thanks) that gave me the tip that SA might not be reading my headers right. I followed up on that and confirmed. I'm getting the above debug message when I run a test on a specific single spam that made it through. Here is my whole debug line showing the header
