Doing a lookup of the IP from where I am sitting, I can get the reverse
DNS:

Non-authoritative answer:
100.148.42.162.in-addr.arpa     name = smtpgate.ndunet.com.

sounds like the MTA in question is not performing rDNS lookups,
or else not recording them in a format SpamAssassin can read.

You are correct now that I look. The MTA is CommuniGate and the header is:

  Received: from [162.42.148.100] (HELO smtpgate.ndunet.com)
    by admin.mwci.net (CommuniGate Pro SMTP 4.1.8)
    with ESMTP id 119059853 for [EMAIL PROTECTED];

I can resolve 162.42.148.100 from the CommuniGate server successfully. And, as I reflect back, this has been brought up a very few times in the past about the headers being incorrect with that MTA on this list.
