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.
[]# zgrep 'dovecot.*spam' /var/log/maillog-20100404.gz

msgid=<164696033923172620...@xpsp5>: saved mail to spam
[]#
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.
