Ah, maybe I'm misunderstanding how $sender_rcvhost is expanded (and spamassassin is as well).

The way I was (apparently incorrectly?) interpreting a similar expansion here is that the host was
not verified via FcRDNS due to the presence of the square brackets in the parenthetical. Apparently
that is the way Spamassasin is also interpreting the same received line, marking all mails as "no
verified RDNS".

Sorry, the received line (or another one from a bit later, same thing though) ended up as:
