Since it's your ISP's system that's adding it, its format will be stable
as long as your ISP doesn't change MTAs, and the addresses shown can be
trusted.  Note that since MTA always insert Received: headers _before_
any old ones, your ISP's will be the _first_ that matches the regexp:

      ^Received: .* by ([-a-z0-9]+\.)*your.isp\>

No, it would be LAST one that matches that.  Any received headers
above that will generally be various mail servers within the ISP.
