I vaguely recall that Ham is the email you explicitly designate as being good, wanted mail. It is the opposite of spam, but more specifically it's the content you use to train a Bayesian filter to recognize the mail that you want.

I wonder if the SpamAssassin filter is saying that that particular message is not just "Not Spam" but even above and beyond that it closely matches a message which it's been explicitly told is a good message.

Would that make sense? Was this a message that someone somewhere could have actually wanted? Or is it potentially a sign of someone trying to trick SA into thinking this was a good message?
