I think I found it, it seems to be a mailwatch issue and not a
mailscanner issue. I am not sure how to fix it yet though. Here is the
post I just sent to the mailwatch list.

I have gotten lost now on all the changes made to my system lately and so
I dont know where or why at some point I changed the "Required
SpamAssassin Score" lines from an integer to the &SQLSpamScores setting
below. But now spam does not get the message subhject changed and if I go
into the mailscanner db in the spamscores table, there is no content? So
I guess this is where the scores now need to go, but what goes in the
user column? Is this simply a Mailwatch user? and if so how does the
correct score setting only get applied to specific email coming to that
user? If a users name is "MyName" how does that score know to be applied
to that user...there is no email attached to a mailwatch user? Or do I
even need to use the &SQLSpamScores setting at all? And where does the
high and normal spam scores settings go? In the spamscores table or in
the users table?

I am confused now


# This replaces the SpamAssassin configuration value 'required_hits'.
# If a message achieves a SpamAssassin score higher than this value,
# it is spam. See also the High SpamAssassin Score configuration option.
# This can also be the filename of a ruleset, so the SpamAssassin
# required_hits value can be set to different values for different
messages.
Required SpamAssassin Score = &SQLSpamScores

# If a message achieves a SpamAssassin score higher than this value,
# then the "High Scoring Spam Actions" are used. You may want to use
# this to deliver moderate scores, while deleting very high scoring
messsages.
# This can also be the filename of a ruleset.
High SpamAssassin Score = &SQLHighSpamScores
