Basically all the rules included with SpamAssassin are for spam identification, and header modification is based on detecting mail as spam. I think SA is poorly suited for your stated purpose of sorting mail by header keywords. If you really really wanted to use SA for this project, you would need to *remove* all the bundled rules and then add your own header parsing rules in local.cf, and then SA only knows how to modify the subject with a spam tag or not at all. This seems like more trouble than it's worth for an end product that doesn't suit your needs very well. There are other established ways to sort mail with userland imap filters, procmail, seive, etc. Good luck. -- Noel Jones
