The HELO is set to "dsl-62-3-116-153.zen.co.uk" which is correct because
it matches the default reverse lookup for the IP address (I've never had
a good reason to change it from the default). It sounds like the
Spamassassin developers have been a bit overzealous in deciding that
certain hostnames are more likely to be spam sources than others. I'll
get my ISP to change the reverse lookup to a name of my own choosing;
that should hopefully work around this dodgy rule.
