Yes, for most purposes setting internal networks and trusted_networks
correctly should suffice. SpamAssassin finds an IP address to check
with RCVD_IN_* rules in the Received trace at the point where
mail entered the contiguous trusted range of IP addresses.

This may not suffice if your IP addresses are found in URLs
in mail body.
