classify the email message as legitimate, Norton
AntiSpam collects information such as signature and
URL hashes of the email message. Norton AntiSpam
then sends this information to the Symantec Web
server for additional analysis.

and sends it to your email client. The email client
identifies the change in the subject of the email
message and moves it to the Junk folder or the Norton
AntiSpam folder.
