Unfortunately, I'm getting legit mail lately with Received: after From:.
So far, however, there's never been more than one Received: line following
From:, and it has always appeared immediately after From:.

It should be pointed out that I pass through anything from a limited
number of known people, some of which actually consistently send me
stuff with Received: after From:. 

IMHO whitelisting (as in, protect yourself against your own filters;
+not+ meaning, bounce anyone you haven't seen before) is a useful and
necessary part of any successful spam filtering system.
