Sounds like the client doing this - based on the X-Spam-Status: header.

You can make the Spam Actions a rule set and for those domains that want to be subject marked change the rule actions.

> Hi All,

> I upgraded to a new mail server (CentOS 5) a few months ago and installed

> However one of my domains would like to receive all their email including
> email tagged as spam.

> I have a few of questions:

> My MailScanner.conf spam delivery options are set as:
> Spam Actions = deliver header "X-Spam-Status: Yes"
> High Scoring Spam Actions = deliver header "X-Spam-Status: Yes"
>
> 2. Is it possible to have spam for just one domain delivered to the user's
