Possibly - I've noticed the same problem myself in incoming non-upstream
mail hosted on gmail, they seem to have recently introduced new checks
there which aren't playing well with some mailing lists and e-mail
forwarding either.  For some mails it's explicitly saying that it thinks
it's forged.

Dunno if the fact that one of the VMs that handles my outgoing mail is
now in Japan (so I can have something a bit less laggy when I travel in
Asia) is hurting too but that'd be a bit odd.
