_STARS(*)_ Problem

OK, is there any intent to support this in the future?  We have recently
moved from having our mail hosted to hosting ourselves and some of my
users are complaining as they used to filter on the number of 'ssss' in
the subject.

MailScanner doesn't use SpamAssassin's markup generation, it does it's
own. All message tagging options are configured in MailScanner's config
files.

Anything relating to message tagging that you set it spamassassin's
config files (local.cf, etc) will be ignored. (however, options like
use_bayes, etc will still be used as they affect how SA calculates
scores, and MS does use that part of SA).

AFAIK, the _STARS_ bit is a spamassassin option, and isn't supported by
MailScanner at all.
