RP_MATCHES_RCVD is a check that the message metadata is internally consistent. While giving it a negative score may not be justified, don't think that it's useful as a spam indicator and should have a positive score.

Giving this rule positive value would uselessly add score to correct mail,
but any negative score increases possibility of false negative.

I don't think this should have any score, imho __RP_MATCHES_RCVD for meta
rules is just enough. It can be T_ rule if anyone wants, imho.

I have set score of this rule to 0 because of those.

In fact, as spams usually exhibit internal *inconsistencies* due to being largely forged, a message *not* hitting RP_MATCHES_RCVD may actually be a better spam indicator - that's probably the reason that it has a negative score.

not hitting is very common by any hosted domains.
