The quarantined message includes all original header fields, even the
X-Spam-*. An extra set of amavisd-new -generated X-Spam-* header
fields is appended as well, regardless of recipient being local or not.

Note that this is different from the passed messages, where existing
X-Spam-* headers fields are stripped (unless $remove_existing_spam_headers
is changed to false), and a new set is added for local recipients only.

Let mailman submit to MTA on port 10025 to avoid re-checking:
mm_cfg.py :
  SMTPHOST = 'localhost'
  SMTPPORT = 10025

then if you think it is wise, you may also place a name
of the mailing list to bypass_spam_checks and spam_lovers
as you suggested. I wouldn't - to save mailing list administrator
having to manually delete all junk from non-members that
gets to mailman. Perhaps just rising the kill level for mailing
lists suffices.
