We cannot really say SA's autodetection is broken, because SA is designed
to be called post-SMTP. Nor that a milter is broken per se for not adding
a Received: header, as that is the responsibility of the MTA itself. But a
milter using SA *can* be said to be broken if it's not proving SA
with the required post-SMTP view of things. Instead of patching SA, or
trying to "fix" it even, any milter using SA should simply DTRT (Do The
Right Thing): which is: add a pseudo Received: header before handing it
over to SA.
