The virus scanning mail servers that are in front of this box are doing RBL and MX checks and tagging messages with X headers. I then have a couple custom scores in the spamassassin config for these headers. This was done prior to spamassassin for use with some custom procmail spam filtering, and so is a bit legacy. Probably will do some server redesign in the future.
