Please read:
man Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf
and search for:
trusted_networks
internal_networks

You should set them in your sa-mimedefang.cf file,
and thus spamassassin running on your MD server will better know how to 
handle email from the upstream servers.
It would do better job by searching RBL against the ip address of the 
originating smtp client,
instead of the ip of your upstream mail server.

Take a look here:
