The * is a wild char because there are probably other letters after office,
e.g. . ] or space etc.  I also tried:

:0:
* ^Subject:.*is out of the office*
$MAILDIR/Trash

* is not a wild card character.

dot is a wild card character.

When dot is followed by splat (.*) that means "zero or more anything"

So, the above says match on "subject:' starting in column 1
followed by any number of characters (zero or more)
followed by "is out of the office*"

I'm not certain what that last asterisk does....
did you try:
* ^subject:.*is out of the office.*

note the ".*" at the end, and not just "*"
