Good point, provided that Bogofilter actually treats "Subject:" as any 
other word. If that's the case, we should pass a line that only says 
"Subject:".

But you'll also ignore possible "polluting" words in the body, while 
taking note of those words (the subject) that really prompted the user 
to flag the message as spam.
