It will not add the spam score s's in the subject, it adds them to a
header in the e-mail.
If you want a spam score in the subject, you need to read the
MailScanner.conf file and look at the lines around the spam modify
subject = line.
You can add "_score_" to the end of this ({Spam?} _score_)
to get this, but I think it gives the spam score numerically.
