Yes, TxRep right now uses the _last_ Received header. IMHO it should use
the _latest_ Received header, only.

Let's have a look at the following series of Received header which cause
the problem:

Received: from mail-wi0-f175.google.com (mail-wi0-f175.google.com
[209.85.212.175])
        by mx1.domain.com (envelope-sender <ale...@price2spy.com>)
(MIMEDefang) with ESMTP id t5HJ97If029681
        for <recipi...@domain.com>; Wed, 17 Jun 2015 21:09:10 +0200
Received: by wiwd19 with SMTP id d19so1242876wiw.0
        for <recipi...@domain.com>; Wed, 17 Jun 2015 12:09:07 -0700 (PDT)
Received: from localhost ([188.95.50.54])
        by mx.google.com with ESMTPSA id
ka7sm8287084wjc.36.2015.06.17.12.09.06
        (version=TLSv1 cipher=RC4-SHA bits=128/128);
        Wed, 17 Jun 2015 12:09:07 -0700 (PDT)

The lastest (third) Received header causes $helo to be set to 'localhost'.

It would make more sense if TxRep uses the lastest (first) Received
header setting $helo to 'mail-wi0-f175.google.com'.

        Best regards
