this receive line only in spam?

I get a lot of med-spams lately that look the same, short, 2 lines with
one url, below that some text (from a book?).
Often it gets marked as spam because of the url, but not always because
bayes has no real grip on this mail.
Maybe there is a way to recognise them in the second receive-line because
of the special helo and port text.
I want to block it with this at the MTA level because I couldn't find HAM
with this text (port-number and special helo syntax).
But I'm not so sure yet so my question is do you know of any HAM that uses
receive lines like this?

Thanks
Menno van Bennekom

Re: this receive line only in spam

Posted by Menno van Bennekom <mv...@xs4all.nl>.
FYI,
I got another receive line here that occurs only in spam, with always the
same ip-segment (not the ip-address that actually delivers the mail).
First I tagged it with SA but now I block the mail in postfix, 15% less
spam!.
Maybe somebody recognizes these lines. It's the second receive line, and
the envelope-sender ends at @punkass.com, @sexmagnet.com, @thoughguy.com
etcetera.

FYI,
Made a small rule for this and it gets hit every day sofar without any FP's.
So if anyone is interested:
header PORT_HELO Received =~ /from \[[0-9\.]*\]
\(port\=[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9] helo\=\[[a-zA-Z]*\]\)/
describe PORT_HELO Header contains special port and helo
score PORT_HELO 10.00

Not sure, but running some mass-checks now to see.
