I retrieve my mail from dovecot over POP3. Sometimes dovecot delivers a message into the spam mailbox, even though I have no spam filtering enabled.
Dovecot does not do that. Your MUA such as Thunderbird might do this, or a milter or some other process on your MTA may do that, but Dovecot won't (unless you tell it to sieve mail for you and file into the spam mailbox).
Well, here is something you do not know about dovecot.

[]#
deliver sends the message wherever it is directed, apparently in this case by an anti-spam header added by an intermediate mail server. 3 out of 4 messages in .spam are not spam. I need to either change dovecot or deliver to always use the regular "new" mailbox, or retrieve POP3 mail from mailboxes other than that "new" mailbox.
