I have had a problem with a particular form of received header not being

list about a year ago with a glimmer of hope that in future versions this
would be overcome. However a year later these emails are still being marked
as ALL_TRUSTED because the untrusted relay received header is not parsed.

The received header is in the following form:

Received: (from

And I am informed it shouldn't have the bracket before the from.

Is there any way I can make sure that spamassassin will parse these received
headers and recognise them, or at least not allow ALL_TRUSTED to be given if
there is one or more badly formed received header?

As it was a year ago, I have copied the 4 emails in the exchange, below.

Current versions of SpamAssassin won't fire ALL_TRUSTED if it can't parse all of the received headers.

Since you provided no current debug info, or even said what version you are using, I can only guess at what you're problem might be. Are you sure it's not parsing the header and isn't instead a trust path issue? Or maybe did you not upgrade (you haven't said that you did) or maybe you upgraded to a version that hadn't yet modified the ALL_TRUSTED behavior, or maybe...
