Default {spam?} is inserted in the subject line

I have Norton Antispam running which inserts [Norton
Antispam] in the subject line, but on several which have
been marked by Norton as spam, I also get {spam?} inserted
after Norton's message. Can anyone tell me where this is
coming from as I'm not running any other anti-spam
program. Could it be my ISP's spam filter inserting this
before I receive the e-mails? I understand that they use
Spam-Assassin gro looking at the Headers.

Why ask us? Ask Norton?

My ISP uses Spam Assassin and marks suspects messages as {Spam?}.

Thank you Jeff, I also use TCP as my ISP and you have
confirmed what I suspected. I have only noticed this over
the last week so I presume they've got Spam-Assassin
properly set up now.

David,

TCP have been running Spam Assassin for many months. I've had mail marked
{Spam?} since at least the beginning of the year; I don't understand why you
haven't seen it (try TCP Support). I haven't had a false positive yet - all
{Spam?} mail goes straight into a "spam" folder. I'll continue to check it
for a month or two to ensure it really is junk. If it's ok, I'll set OE up
to just delete it.

Regards,
