From my reading of the mailscanner and spamassassin mailing lists, it is quite difficult to catch spam with identical from and to addresses, without false positives and/or increased processing overhead.
Heinzmty: If your domain is not whitelisted, are these spams being caught by any other spamassassin tests, and just not scoring high enough to be trapped as spam?
fgfaz: Are the recipient domains whitelisted? If so, remove them from the whitelist.
One solution that some people recommend is SPF. This is not something we use ourselves, so we can't recommend it or offer any advice about it, but if you are desperate you could check it out.
Regards,
Sarah
