No, header of an email means envelope information. See like this SPAM
targeted mail:

Subject
: [*** S P A M ***] Abort Letter
An: Network Recipient <user at yourserver.com>
Message-id:  <20040420150708.A0B5B1DDC at m-kg241p.ocn.ne.jp>

What you do with mail with a specific SPAM value is your choice. Using
mimedefang-filter you might delete mail with SPAM score of >30 to
/dev/null or you might gather all SPAM mail in a specific SPAM account
-> http://www.mimedefang.org/node.php?id=35

Read "man mimedefang-filter" to understand things a bit better.
