in subject?

hi,

our setup: Maia provides the versatility of web accessable
per-user settings, we use 
maildrop to divert spam into users' Junk folders for easy
(imap) access, and i have cron 
setup to feed all additions to users' Junk/Spam-Learn and
Junk/Ham-Learn folders to 
sa-learn.  this all seems to be working quite well, and i am
very grateful indeed!

my remaining questions relate to the delivered spam. 
firstly, i would like to provide a 
simple and obvious indication whether or not a DSN was sent.
 how would i insert a 
string in the subject based on that criteria?  secondly,

/etc/maia.conf,
 >> /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf, but haven't yet
figured out what i need to tweak..

the point is i have (disabled defang_spam and) enabled the
X-Spam-Report header, and am 
mostly happy with that, but the "5.0 required"
therein misleadingly reflects the unused 
spamassassin setting, and i am looking for how to customize
the wording and remove the 
content preview.  it appears ineffective to manipulate the
relevant spamassassin 
settings, and i couldn't find it in amavisd-maia either.

thirdly, the X-Spam-Report header is more often fine, but
quite often instead of the 
nicely formatted multiline report i find a single very long
line with embedded encoding 
strings like:

> =?iso-8859-1?Q?has=0Aidentified_this_..._spam=2E__?=
=?iso-8859-1?Q?The_original_message=0Ahas_been...

i'm guessing this happens when the report contains an
international character?  any way 
to fix or bypass this, at least for locally delivered
messages?

finally, some questions regarding "outgoing
mail", ie when a recipient is non-local:  if 
the message is judged to be spam, is delivery stopped?  is
it delivered but with headers 
added?  is a DSN sent?  do the answers depend upon whether
or not there are also local 
recipients?

thanks again,
