The sample.cf file comes with the following lines already in the 
$global_taboo_header section:

/^subject:\s*RCPT:\b/i
/^subject:\s*Receipt Confirmation\b/i


I sent a message to a a new 1.94 list I'm testing with each of these 
strings in the subject line. The first doesn't work but the second does. 
here's the first message which didn't bounce:
