 Deepheader analysis examines the entire message header for spam characteristics.
-Basically an email has two parts. The body (information sent to recipient) and the header containing metadata (like "from", "to", content type, date of delivery, message forwarding path, signatures of mailservers, certificates, system-gegerated informations like spam level, processing info etc.).
+More specifally - the deep header scan examines each message and **calculate a __confidence value__  based on the results of the decision-tree analysis**.The higher the calculated confidence value, the more likely the message is really spam.
-Recipient can learn a lot about the email history and nature by examining message header.
+There may be sometimes very subtle difference in the specific email, which triggers the confidence value. As a best practice - it is always better to have an information that certain email may be problematic, because attackers today are able to mimick messages that are almost indistinguishable from the original messages! **So check twice such messages before you click link in it or open an attachment**.

 Line //X-FEAS-DEEPHEADER://  is added to the message header that includes the message’s calculated confidence value.
