It doesn't look like mailman can handle this.  The closest it comes is
allowing you to make a subject with that line a spam marker, which
then requires an admin to review and act upon - a less than ideal
approach.

If anybody knows an approach that will simply bounce then I'll happily
look into it.  I'd rather not simply mark them as spam as they'll
likely simply get overlooked and dropped on the floor (as does pretty
much every mail caught by the spam filters).

Or simply copy-n-paste the correct subject when hitting reply :)
