Usually this happens if xxxx.org is a mailserver that has a non-routable IP (ie:
10.*, 192.168.*, etc) and is static-map natted by an upstream router.

To fix it you need to declare trusted_networks manually in your local.cf.

see http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/TrustPath

Note: this will also fix ALL_TRUSTED matching spam messages (which should never
happen) as well as FPs on dialup RBLs.
