Subject: [IMail Forum] IMail filtering on non-existent value

I have IMail sitting behind ASSP.  ASSP is set to add [SPAM] to the subject line of incoming emails seen as spam (the value here includes the brackets).  Then, I have an inbound rule for the domain in IMail that says If Subject contains [SPAM], forward to [EMAIL PROTECTED].
 
I'm not sure what IMail is looking at, but it forwards all emails to [EMAIL PROTECTED], not just those where the subject contains [SPAM].  I have other installs set up the same way and I don't have this problem with them.
 
I deleted and recreated the inbound rule, but it didn't make a difference.  I've check the header of the email and the only line with [SPAM] in it is
 
X-IMail-Rule : S~[SPAM]:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Data- ST
 
Imail is adding this line, but the email as it comes from ASSP to IMail does not have [SPAM] anywhere in it, much less the subject line.
