SpamAssassin question

I have been playing around trying to get SA working.  So far things seem
to be going fine except some spam does get delivered.

The problem seems I have added a couple of my domains in the whitelisted. 
In the local.cf file "whitelist_from  *@mydomain.com" problem is when
someone forges the return address from my domain say "user at mydomain.com"
the mail always gets delivered. As it should I guess.  Anyway of limiting
this.  I can't believe its that easy to bypass SA.

Not sure I am reading the headers right but isn't this message also
failing RBL checks.  If so should I disable them in SA and turn them on in
Postfix?

Anything else I should try?

Here is the message headers.
