so how does "subject:.*[SPAM}.*" (admitredly meaning s or p etc) trigger 
the behaviour but "subject.*spam" not trigger it ?

Also - where is this code normally ? I presume SpamDetect just
calls the rules defined in the spam section, nothing
cleverer.  And if I do decide to separate owners and
moderators I may need to do the same trick for moderators -
where is that code ? (sorry but with directories all over
the place its horrible finding and grepping.) - presume
there's a MODERATOR_PIPELINE or similar.
