Blank subject gets around filtering rules

Good morning!

I had two spams this morning that got past my mailbox filter because
the subject didn't start with SPAM.

I checked the headers, and there was no subject line at all.  The SA
stuff all flagged the message as spam with a score above 20, but there
was no subject line to modify.

Can SA insert a subject line if there is none and the message should
have a marked up subject?

Or is this verbotten?

What version are you on?  This was a 3.0.1 problem as I recall, should have
been fixed in 3.0.2.
