If it was sent FROM one person TO one person, it fails one of the primary
tests of whether an e-mail is spam. (bulk)

If it was mass-mailed to a bunch of people who didn't ask for it, it is
spam... if it was mailed to one person, it isn't spam even if that one
person never requested it in the first place.
