multiple score based subject/headers

I want to set spamassassin so that messages that are most definitely
spam (say, score 10+) have headers and a subject tag that indicate such,
while messages that could be false-positives (<10) have their own
seperate tag.  Is this possible?

Thanks in advance,
Bob..

If you're using Exiscan, this is pretty easy to do with an ACL.

Sorry... the setup's exim3 (yes I know, but they won't let me upgrade
it), amavisd-new, spamassassin 2.64, courer-imap on debian stable.. 
spamassassin is being called directly from an exim director,  and I've
been looking into some exim magic that'll do it, I was just hoping there
might be something I could have spamassassin do itself..

There are other ways, just not necessarily with SA.  This is much easier 
to do in the program that calls SA.  ex: qmail-scanner.  You didnt 
mention what program you are using but I imagine you should be looking 
there and not with SA itself.  SA assigns a score, what is done with 
that score it doesnt care about.

is there no other way?  no way to specify a condition and assign the
appropriate subject_tag?  (not that I've seen much in the docs I've been
reading to indicate that there is, but that does seem a rather hackish
way to go about it)

A second SA instance with a score of 0.1 and a subject line of 
***non-spam***
