This isn't a very accurate way of checking, although there's not much
you can do without the original message.

Presumably missing from your dummy headers - quite likely not missing
from the spam.

You don't know the original from address, so this may be bogus.

OK, so if you take off your additional 1.0 for that particular rule,
1.0 for DATE_MISSING, and 1.9 for FROM_NO_LOWER (since we don't know
whether or not those two hit on the original message which we haven't
seen), the 7.5 total comes down to 3.6, which isn't going to get
tagged as ham by a default SA install.
