Config snip on FortiGate:
# config emailfilter profile
edit "default"
config imap

end
config pop3
set action tag
set tag-msg "SpamByFGT:POP3"
end
next
end

Tag to MIME header does not modify the email contents[Subject/Body] directly for a user, rather the email client[Outlook/Thunderbird/etc] can take action based on this inserted Header/Attribute.
