The actual prefix added by SpamBayes is "spam," (note the trailing comma),
or "unsure," for suspect messages.  If you include the trailing comma in

This can be done with manual editing of the SpamBayes configuration files.
If the above change doesn't help you, let the list know and we can give you
details on the settings to change if you want a different prefix.
