Sometimes it's virtual users using dovecot userdb or something like. MTA isn't aware of it (all it uses for 
virtual user is mailbox presence). But each virtual user have own wordlist for bogofilter. deliver would set 
some environment variables like $HOME to desirable values for such virtual user and then we have good place 
to call filter pointing it to virtual user home directory.
