Hi

This *is* being detected as spam as you have the RBL's (SBL+XBL etc)
running via MailScanner, not from SpamAssassin. If you do the the RBL
checks this way the RBL's are treated as a blacklist. If you move the
checks into spamassassin you'll get higher scores and not complete  blocks.

Also what version of MailScanner and Spamassassin are you using? Using
Debian's release cycle you could be very behind if using 'stable' rather
than 'testing' or 'unstable'.
