What exactly is the bug that you are reporting?
SpamAssassin has nothing to do with the 'unknown' token in the top most received
header.

Nope, those two headers are added by two different pieces of software (first
SquirrelMail and then Postfix). A rule which would check for this would very
surely only work for your setup. Oh, and that "unknown" reported by Postfix
probably either means that the mail server could not resolve a domain name for
the IP (relatively common) or the functionality was completely disabled.
If you really still use version 2.60 you should think about updating btw...

That is too bad.
Without exception, the "unknown" has been an indicator of SPAM.
We have been lucky so far in getting about a dozen SPAM e-mails per day;
of them, one or two have the "unknown" indicator.

Please note that when "unknown" is present, it is an extremely good
indication of SPAM.
And when "authenticated user" also shows, it appears to be a guarantee
of SPAM.
We have yet to see a false positive regarding "unknown".
SpamAssasin should look for the "unknown" at minimum, for scoring.
