      These flags still check the headers of the message in that
particular ruleset. Is there any way to disable this??

This is a known bug in 3.2x: the 'H' flag, once set, is never cleared.
You can avoid the problem by eliminating all explicit uses of the 'H'
flag in earlier recipes.  Since searching the header is the default,
you only _need_ to use the 'H' flag when its combined with the 'B'
flag to search the entire message, and for that you can use the
        * HB ?? regex

syntax to avoid setting the flag on the recipe itself.

Yes, this sucks.  Yes, it's fixed in the source tree for the next version.
No, I don't know when that'll be.
