The other thing I was wondering about, did you remove some headers from
the sample messages?
I didn't see any "Received:" headers. There should be one for each mail
server that the message passes through. If these are submitted by
customers, there should be at least 2. One for their ISP's SMTP mail
server and one for your mail server.
