qmail scanner, SA - local.cf not working [SOLVED]

[deyab]

qmail + qmail-scanner + spamassassin + clamav

Overall, I got the setup working, but my email Subject is getting tagged. I just want the X-Spam headers attached to the email, but not the Subject line changed. My local.cf is as follows

# rewrite_header Subject *****SPAM*****
report_safe 0
skip_rbl_checks 1
required_score 6

I have tried adding
rewrite_header Subject
or
rewrite_header Subject 0

it makes no difference. As if the local.cf file is ignored. But that can not be the case - if I omit the required_score 6 line, I can see in the log that it is using default value of 5, and with required_score 6 included, value of 6 is used.


/var/spool/qmailscan/qmail-queue.log has this (email address changed, as I was spamming myself from a webmail to test)

Can someone share working copy of local.cf that does not tag the subject line? Also, the subject line get's tagged like this
SPAM: HIGH * get the loan you want

That first part, SPAM: HIGH * just should not be there.

Thanks for any ideas! Let me know if more details about the setup is required..

Also, what is the difference between
-rws--x--x 1 qscand qscand 3380 Jul 20 22:53 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue
-rwxr-xr-x 1 qscand qscand 140137 Jul 24 19:28 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl

qmail-scanner-queue is a binary, that in addition to whatever it does, seemingly call qmail-scanner-queue.pl. So what does qmail-scanner-queue does exactly?
