No, you're right. SA doesn't seem to use Return-Path at all. I
think I added it while trying to figure out why SA run from the
command line on a delivered message was producing different results
than Mail::Spamassassin called from MIMEDefang.
The last Received line, on the other hand, can be quite useful. Even
if you don't do any DNS blackhole checking (which I do), a bunch of
date-shift checks and similar will utilize it.
