if you're merely going to check for "=?" starting the subject line, you're
probably better off just setting up a spamassassin rule for it and scoring
it.

in your /etc/mail/spamassassin/sa-mimedefang.cf file you'd put something
like this: 

header LOCAL_MIME_SUBJECT   Subject =~ /^=￥?.*/
score LOCAL_MIME_SUBJECT 0.5

(disclaimer: this is untested code, provided as-is, your mileage may vary,
use only unleaded fuel, score as appropriate for your needs)
