A previous (huge) company of mine sent out a lot of phishing test emails, some of which were pretty convincing.

As developers, we quickly discovered that all the emails had a metadata header in them which identified them as a phishing test, so we set up a filter for it so every email since is clearly coded with a bright red "Phishing test!" label.
