The last Received Header will be your own which you can already match on RBL
Lists.

I've found most spam comes from zombied machines which then won't have
another Received Header, and if they do it will most likely be falsified.
If you really want to to get the next one, then your will block emails
forwarded from aol,hotmail and other forwarding services
and have unhappy customers..
