Or it just may tell you the clue level of the recipients.  I run a
mail server that only sends alerts to paying customers.  These customers
pay several hundred dollars a year for these alerts.  The subject line
and body text are clearly tagged as to the sedning source.  AOL users
STILL report it as spam!  I have tried to get AOL to whitelist our server
but no luck.
