bounce_matching_headers is different from header_filter_rules. For
header_filter_rules, you might want something like

 ^Subject:.*remove

because the search is against all of the message's headers.

For bounce_matching_headers,

  Subject: .remove.

says search the subject header value for the pattern '.remove.' which
ought to succeed unless 'remove is at the very beginning or end of the
header.
