Those are pretty draconian filters you have. I can see filtering $$$
subject lines (as I do locally), but subject lines that contain $ should be
further analyzed for common spam language ("money", "free", "order", etc.).
I set up the procmail filters at my local ISP, so we run through various
scoring rules to see how much a $ subject line should really be considered
spam.

Perl-wise, you may want to look at the following:
