That's a valid concern. In this specific case, however, it does
not apply. All I do if SpamAssassin arrives at a score above the
threshold (the "...yadda..." part) is adding an X-Spam-Score
header. Everything else (moving it to a spam folder or even
deleting it) happens in the recipient's mail agent, and thus
under the recipient's responsibility. It would make little
sense IMHO to do that for mail which originated within the
organization.

Virus scanning is of course applied to every mail, whether
originating locally or remotely.
