I just checked a message sent from OWA, and I find only the IP address
of the Exchange server, not the IP address of the machine running the
browser.
I sent one from another organization, and one from within our own
organization, and in neither case does the client appear in the
"Received:" headers.
Both were sent from Exchange 2003 servers, one organization running
SP1 and the other running SP2.

Could this be the browser you're using that's causing this?
IAC, how many "Received:" headers are in the message? The one above
surely isn't the one inserted by the receiving server. How many
"Received:" headers is the SMTP server checking?

That's hard to say since you don't say what the sender's e-mail
address is (e.g. the "From" header). The PRA isn't about simple IP
address checking (like SPF), but about whether the e-mail address of
the sender (taken from the RFC2822 headers -- or the MAIL FROM if the
sender can't be found in the message).

It may be, but that would depend on the checking done by the receiving
server (e.g. how many "Received:" headers they check).

Not all implementations of SenderID are error-free. So, trying to fix
this at your end may not be the best approach. I _am_ curious about
the 70.247.95.109 address in the "Received:" header, though.
