At present you can only match strings in the From: header, so add a
local rule in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf something like this:

describe XX_BADWORDS Bad words in the sender name
header   XX_BADWORDS From =~ /bad words pattern/i
score    XX_BADWORDS 5.0

See http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/WritingRules for a fuller
explanation.
