Here are bits of the EUDORA rules you're hitting: 20_ratware.cf:meta FORGED_MUA_EUDORA (__EUDORA_MUA && !__EUDORA_MSGID && !__UNUSABLE_MSGID && !__HAS_X_LOOP && !__HAS_X_MAILING_LIST && !__MAC_EUDORA_MUA && !__PALM_EUDORA_MUA && !__OLD_EUDORA1 && !(__OLD_EUDORA2 && !__ANY_QUALCOMM_MUA)) 20_ratware.cf:describe FORGED_MUA_EUDORA Forged mail pretending to be from Eudora
20_ratware.cf:header __EUDORA_MUA X-Mailer =~ /\b(?:QUALCOMM|Eudora)\b/ 20_ratware.cf:header __MAC_EUDORA_MUA X-Mailer =~ /Eudora for (?:Macintosh|Mac OS X)/ FORGED_MUA_EUDORA is a meta rule meaning it is based on other rules. Putting "Eudora for Mac OS X" somehwere in your X-Mailer like the __MAC_EUDORA_MUA has it should do the trick, methinks.
