X-Message-Flag
The header field "X-Message-Flag" is used by Microsoft mail clients and can
contain a custom text. Mail clients from Microsoft (such as Outlook) use this
header field when converting Message objects used by Microsoft products to MIME
messages.
I suspect it's coincidental / benign or a joke, given that it's a Microsoft-ism
here.
(Or maybe that's what they want you to think ;-) )
