header_filter_rules have a regular expression (regexp) and an action. The regexp is a Python regexp which is searched case insensitively against the message headers including part headers of multipart messages. See <http://docs.python.org/lib/re-syntax.html> for documentation of Python regexp syntax. In your case, you may want something like ^subject:\s*\*\*\*spam\*\*\* to match a header that begins with 'subject:' followed by zero or more whitespace characters (\s*) vollowed by three literal asterisks followed by 'spam' followed by three more literal asterisks (although, you probably want five asterisks, not three). However, to get spamassassin flagged messages, I would use instead ^x-spam-flag:\s*yes$ -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
