SA has a special 'missing-match' syntax to detect missing headers.
Here's a rule that I wrote to test for missing "Message-Id:" headers:

header   L_MESSAGEID_MISSING  Message-Id =~ /^UNSET$/ [if-unset: UNSET]
describe L_MESSAGEID_MISSING  Missing Message-Id: header
score    L_MESSAGEID_MISSING  1.5

So to cretate your rule:

header    RM_hn_from   From =~ /^UNSET$/ [if-unset: UNSET]
describe  RM_hn_from   From header not found
score     RM_hn_from   1.00

I do not know if it is any more efficient than the way that you
did it, I just copied somthing that I found in one of the distributed
rules.
