Julian,

   Hmmm, noticed the whitelist stuff in this area of the code.  I had
these three lines (recently added as of 3.22.7) in whitlist.conf:

To:   spam at colby.edu
To:   abuse at colby.edu
To:   postmaster at colby.edu

I commented them out and the domains started looking right in the SA
output.  Bug?  More misuse on my part?
