I see three possible solutions:
(1) Alter the score for SUBJ_HAS_SPACES in local.cf:
score SUBJ_HAS_SPACES 3.5
(2) Alter the number of contiguous spaces required by that trigger in
20_head_tests.cf (default is 6 - you could change it to 8 to avoid
triggering on that subject):
header SUBJ_HAS_SPACES Subject =~
/(?:\s{8}|\t\s|\s\t)\S/
(3) Define your own test to give a positive score if the subject
contains "Output from your job."
Of course there are other solutions as well - SA is extremely flexible
in that respect - but one of those should suffice if you don't want to
get into it too deeply.
