Or can it receive
SMTP directly if there is no forwarding to do? What about spam/virus
filtering in that case?
Dovecot has nothing to do with smtp. You need MTA like postfix or exim
to deliver mail to mbox/maildir. Then dovecot can show those mailboxes
to client.
just a small correction .... dovecot has its own delivery agent,
which means it (dovecot) can handle the 'deliver mail to maildir' part.
I'm not sure about mailbox, but maildir i'm sure dovecot delivery agent
can handle.
anyway, you'll still need an MTA to collect data from the network
(via SMTP) and then forward it to dovecot delivery agent.
dovecot is not an MTA so it cannot talk SMTP.
