Vee,
Please send the headers from both the first and the second messages.
Without more information all anyone can do is wildly guess.

Also, it's worth noting that learning a message as spam does not
necessarily mean it will be marked as spam if tested again.  Instead of
learning the entire email as a spam (which would be very rigid), the
tokens inside the spam are added to the bayes db, which is an aggregate of
spam AND ham tokens.  The next time you check another copy of that spam,
the tokens in the spam are checked against the tokens in the bayes db and
are statistically analyzed to create a spam probability.  This probability
is used to compute a score that is added to the spam core.
