SpamAssassin and Mailscanner config problems

OK, everything is working but the below........  Direct question.
 
SpamAssassin assigns a score to each email that passes through it.  I need to display "----SPAM---- $score" in the subject of each such email.  Has anyone done this?  Spam assassin has a variable _HITS_ in it.  I have used it outside mailscanner......
 
 
THANKS!

Ladies and Gents,
    As a packground here is whats going on, on the server.  We used to use sophie and spamd.  Now we do the virus filtering with  MailScanner, and I must say, I havent had it crash ever, unlike sophie would go down daily killing mailflow.  So, now its time to move Spam Filtering over to MailScanner.  In fact, everything installed fine (ver 2.55).  Problem must be in the configs.  It seems that some configs take "precedence".  Spamassassin installs its configs in /etc/mail/spamassasin/config.cf if I am not mistaking.  Now theres a "mailscanner" spamassassin config in /opt/Mailscanner/etc/spam.assassin.prefs.conf.  I have read that spam.assassin.prefs.conf takes precedence.  Now when I moved a test domain over to MailScanner, the subjects changed from "----SPAM---- _Hits_" to "{SPAM?}".  Now I greped the /opt/Mailscanner directory for the string, and found it in /opt/MailScanner/lib/MailScanner/ConfigDefs.pl.
    Now, why did it never see/use the things in /opt/Mailscanner/etc/?
    also, why does it seem to discard email, unless the Spam delivery option (in Mailscanner.conf) is deliver, not attach.  If its attach, I get nothing.
 
    PS.  We use Communigate PRO. and 4.22-5 for Mailscanner.
 
Any Suggestions????????
 
THANKS!!!!!!!
