the idea might sound simple and great, iow really efficient, BUT: what
prevents spam from being sent with exactly this phrase in the subject?

Right, nothing.

The best way to not falsely identify mails on this list as spam is to
match the Return-Path against received lines, because all this lists
mail have a Return-Path of '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and are
coming from '62.80.28.8' which identifies itself as
'draenor.its-toasted.org'.

In SpamAssassin-Syntax therefore a setting of

   whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED]

will give mails coming through this list -100 scores and therewith
pretty successfully prevent them from being tagged as spam.
