There is a catch with gmail. The problem is known and you should 
whitelist gmail.
To be short, gmail load balance their frontends even for transmiting a 
unique mail, so the message could be presented many times from multiple 
servers (from various networks as well).

Appart from that, I recently put postgrey and dnsbl, and my spamassassin 
only gives me super high scores. The grey area between ham and pam 
diseapeared. I'm really happy of that.


smtpd_client_restrictions = reject_rbl_client sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org, 
reject_rbl_client list.dsbl.org, permit
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, 
permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination, 
check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10031
