It would appear there was a bug, but Dan Q tried to fix it before releasing
SA 3.0 final.
http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3494

In which Dan Q tried to fix NO_DNS_FOR_FROM prior to 3.0's release.

I'd double-check to make sure you've got a fully final copy of SA 3.0, not
a release candidate.

grep NO_DNS_FOR_FROM /usr/share/spamassassin/*.cf

Should return these lines:

20_dnsbl_tests.cf:header NO_DNS_FOR_FROM                eval:check_dns_sender()
20_dnsbl_tests.cf:describe NO_DNS_FOR_FROM      Envelope sender has no MX
or A DNS records
20_dnsbl_tests.cf:tflags NO_DNS_FOR_FROM                net
30_text_de.cf:lang de describe NO_DNS_FOR_FROM Domain der Absendeadresse

30_text_fr.cf:lang fr describe NO_DNS_FOR_FROM  Adresse From: inconnue en
DNS (pas d'enregistrement MX)
30_text_nl.cf:lang nl describe NO_DNS_FOR_FROM                 Domein in
Van heeft geen MX of A DNS record
30_text_pl.cf:lang pl describe NO_DNS_FOR_FROM



If you see this line:

20_head_tests.cf header NO_DNS_FOR_FROM         eval:check_for_from_dns()

You've got rules from an outdated release. I know the old code was in pre4
and earlier, and not in rc3 and later, but I don't have copies of rc1 and
rc2 on hand to check those.
