What is spam?

I understood it to be pointless posts. But apparently if a thread goes off on to much of a tangent it is also spam. Can someone give me a clear definition of what it is so I can try to avoid spamming.

Cheers.

SPAM is anything that is off topic, pointless, or useless.

I forget the origins of the word itself, but it does have some kind of significance.
