SA assumes that hosts named in trusted_networks (i.e. those hosts which
accept mail on your behalf) can be relied upon to report the correct
incoming IP address, and checks that the last untrusted hop matches the
third term in the rule.  Doesn't matter if a spammer fakes it further
down the Received lines, it's the one where they deliver it to your
network that counts.
