I've included it here.  You'll note that the Message-ID: line has a bunch
of spaces at the end.

Your sb-spamheaders.rc file has:

# Empty Message-ID:
:0
* ^Message-ID:.*([ ]|<>|< >)$
{
:0 f
| ${FORMAIL} -A"X-SBRule: Empty Message-ID:"

According to this recipe, spaces at the end of the line should match.
