Last time I looked (I don't get much email from O365 users), Microsoft's auth
header fields were non-standard in non-trivial ways. The major point is that
authserv-ID was missing, which is a required element. Any AR field without it
should be discarded without processing, so as long as the DKIM signatures are
still verified, this may just be annoyingly verbose logging.
