Take a look at /usr/share/spamassassin/20_head_tests.cf. You need to create
a new rule something along these lines:

header RCVD_IN_INFINITE_MONKEYS  rbleval:check_rbl('relay',
'proxies.relays.monkeys.com.')
describe RCVD_IN_INFINITE_MONKEYS Received via a relay in
proxies.relays.monkeys.com
tflags RCVD_IN_INFINITE_MONKEYS  net

score RCVD_IN_INFINITE_MONKEYS        5.00

This will have to go in the SpamAssassin configuration file (other people
on the list will be able to give you an exact location).
