Outlook rewrites subject line to "SPAM: [original subject]"
Check the workstation for antispam applications.

Thanks for checking into this. I believe it is likely a 3rd party tool
on the workstation too. Does anyone know why a third part tool would
mark your outbound emails with SPAM: in the subject? Does anyone know
what tools do this?
Thanks,

While its very common for it to happen by mail server filtering, a 3rd
party
antispam filter installed on the workstation could also be doing it.

The word 'Spam' is generally appended by either the recepients anti
spam/AV application or their ISP's filters
Its unlikely to be anything to do with the senders PC, and certainly
not

I'm working with a customer of mine who I believe has some form of
malware on his machine that is rewriting the subject line for all of
his outbound emails. Here are the symptoms.
1. The office has quite a few users and they all use the same SMTP
server. Only one user is has this problem.
2. When the problem user composes an email with a certain subject,
the
recipient receives the email, but the subject is always preceded with
SPAM:
3. The mail headers show that Spam Assassin looked at it, but scored
it as non-spam.
Has anyone heard of or seen anything like this? Does any have any
ideas how to fix it? I have included the mail headers below (with
slight modifications to protect the innocent):
