Yep, your ISP probably filters obvious spam (stuff from recently added
dirty IPs etc.). Adding that to the subject line will allow most
bayesian type filters to become trained very soon on a spam keyword
{SPAM} which in effect passes some of the intelligence of your ISP on
to you if you have a tool (I use spamBayes) installed that is capable
of it. Of a simple filter can be created to move anything with that
subject line into a folder as well. Though I've found most of the mail
that comes through my ISP with a similar notation ends up not being
spam, but just looks like it (though I probably don't want to read it
either)..
