Fake spam-status ?

I've just received this email:

X-Spam-Flag: NO

There are no regular spamassassin headers, like: X-Spam-Status, but
there is X-Spam-Flag: NO. Is it possible, that this header caused
spamassassin not to check this email ? This is regular porn site ad.

SpamAssassin checks everything that is sent to it.  Previously added headers
are meaningless.

Looks like the spammers are trying to fool you into not checking email
based on this header - ie it's already been scanned so I'll let it
through..
