Unless SpamAssassin has visibility of the envelope information added to the headers, it won't know the messages are From cabletv.org. Not all setups allow for this. Most notably, any MTA level integration usually has to take extra steps to add this information to the copy of the message SA gets, then remove it before passing it on. Of course, adding SA visibility of the envelope from, is good, but switching to To will at least prove out the theory. Also, make sure spamassassin --lint runs quietly, and doesn't have any complaints that need fixing.
