You mean you don't want the rule to hit on incoming mail. Incoming mail will
get scanned by SpamAssassin if amavisd-new is configured to do so.
Could be wrong, but I believe SpamAssassin will use the rules it is
configured to use, incoming or outgoing. Off hand the only way I see a
workaround for this condition would be running more than one copy of
amavisd-new. Or if using Postfix header checks, more than one copy of
Postfix. But I'm not suggesting this is needed at this point. I'm just
saying if you wanted a different set of rules...

How would you change master.cf?

Is this string always created by one particular host? Is it something
you have control over, so it would be unique enough that it would
never be seen in incoming mail? Do you have control over other
aspects, such as possibly inserting particular body text so a meta
rule could be created?

What problem are you trying to solve? Maybe there is another approach.
