An alternative suggestion would be to allow MailScanner rulesets based 
on SA rule names. This could be potentially far more flexible than just 
based on the Subject:, enabling you to take action on just about 
anything in the message. Simply write a custom rule, score it at 0.001 
if you don't want it to affect the spam score, and trigger a MailScanner 
action as a result. Got doubts about a new rule's false positive rate? 
No problem, quarantine all messages that hit the rule. The possibilities 
are endless.
