If the above is the problem you are experiancing you could just key off the trash viz
header SPURIOUS_CHARS subject =~ /(?:[a-z][\*_& \$\^\.%]){10}/i
Or even to preeempt the next mutation
header SPURIOUS_CHARS subject =~ /(?:[a-z]{1,3}[\*_& \$\^\.%]{1,2}){10}/i

except that most rules are not single words and all the spaces would be removed from
the text.
also if a rule was written without the substitution in mind you may increase your
false positive rate
