The only thing I wanted to prove with this is that line, that is created by my 
local mail server (the last hop, and the most important one for SPF), does 
indeed contains the EHLO string that isn't detected correctly by SA 3.0rc5.

And since nothing is special about my own MS SMTPSVC (Win2k3 SMTP Server), I 
believe the behavior of received.pm should be changed to allow SA running on 
those machines to properly detect the EHLO string, and thus allow SPF Detection 
to properly execute.

What do you want to prove with this? What needs to happen is that 
[66.111.4.30] sends a HELO with an FQDN when it connects to another SMTP. 
Your example above doesn't prove this, it just proves that you know how to 
do an SMTP handshake. At least if the SMTPSVC received lines usually show 
the HELO then, indeed, it seems to be missing.
