SPF is a good start, although that only happens to be true if you run

Another option is one of the spamassassin rules: FROM_AND_TO_SAME. Just

However, be aware that it's incredibly common for nonpsam messages to hit
this rule.. Especially logwatch and other cronjob type system reports which
tend to be from and to root at example.com.
