OK, I now could have a look at them (well, a sample of them, not each of
the > 200 individually).

All samples in that set have been forwarded through your livejournal.com
account, and consequently sent to your server through a dnswl.org-listed
server of livejournal.com (204.9.177.18, see
http://www.dnswl.org/search.pl?s=1409).

Livejournal's purely a mail forwarding service (i.e. there's no way to POP/IMAP that account) and if they can't effect proper controls on how mail is sent through them, then they shouldn't be trusted at all.

On my end, I have degrees of control (false MXes, Blacklists, whitelists, greylists, sender callbacks, etc). I have no such control over the LJ MX'es.

I've proposed a reporting plugin on the sa-users list, that allows (both for yourself, as well as other whitelists) for the list-owner to be notified with details of high-spam activity (at which point, I guess, you guys could pass that on to your whitelisted groups, and/or adjust categories accordingly.

Please configure your trusted_networks/internal_networks -- like that,

Like what?  I think I missed what you want me to do.

you'll even get the benefit that all RBL lookups, whitelist_from_rcvd
etc. profit from the correct information.
