When the subject line starts with Free whatever, that pretty much flags it as spam for me.

I have just received an e-mail which I think is SPAM.  I disconnected my
ethernet cable from the modem and opened the e-mail.  There is no text in
the body of the message, just eight boxes will little icons representing
HTML.  Then I opened the message header and saw the text copied below.

I know there is some header info that verifies the mail is SPAM.  What does
one look for?  Are those indicators here?

COPY OF HEADER BELOW:
