The email system uses a program called SpamAssassin to try to identify incoming external emails which might be spam. SpamAssassin checks an email against a number of characteristics which determines the spam type and scores it. If the score is 5 or more, it inserts SPAM at the start of the subject field. If the score is 10 or more it inserts it as high SPAM.  This technique identifies most of the spam mail, but not all. It can also cause some important emails to be flagged as spam, these are known as "false positives". An email flagged as high SPAM is less likely to be a false positive than one flagged just SPAM.
