Okay, interesting. I'll try that too.

All of the networks involved are on the amavis "TRUSTED" or in @mynetworks.

I'm not doubting what you're saying, but here's a thread that seems to 
indicate it's the expected behavior:

http://lists.policyd.org/pipermail/users_lists.policyd.org/2007-April/001426.html

Here's another one from Lionel discussing:

http://sourceforge.net/p/sqlgrey/mailman/sqlgrey-users/thread/42F...@bo.../

Could that be the solution here as well?

I'm going to have to use postfix to strip them because I believe it's 
causing some mail to be rejected because the headers are too large.

Thanks again,
Alex
