It's a header used by mailing lists to identify to which subscriber the message was sent to. That makes it possible to recognise the intended recipient when a message bounces. Lots of mailing lists insert the name and address of the list in the To: header, so that info can't be used. There are more headers that are being used like this, it's software dependant. Though X-UIDL is often encountered in spam, it's not restricted to spam.
