Well, that's what it sort of looks like to me too, except that there *is* a SA header in the message if you read down through the headers. But the rejection does look like it's MTA-based, not SA-based. In any case, I would suggest you upgrade your SA installation to 2.20, or at the very least 2.11 -- the scores in 2.1 were pretty hairy. 2.20 should fix a lot of false-positive problems.
