No, things are different
79.18.133.80 is the dinamic address given to a portable computer by a
commercial ISP.
The person that was sending this mail has it set to relay all e-mail
througth the departmental server dipolo.dicea.unifi.it [150.217.9.2] (that
is also the MX for his email-address, in case the recipient wanted to make
a callback to verify the source !) that accept relaying from all
_authenticated_ users.
So, whatever net he is using, he will always have the same sending
configuration. This is the same configuration that I and all people
working here use on our portable computers since at least 7 years,
and this is the first time such error occours!

I think spam filter should only care about is is trusted the host that is
passing them the message, not about the route the message has done before!
