It is scanned regardless of domain being local. Locality only affects
adding X-Spam-* mail header fields.

If you want. These headers are probably not of much use to be propagated
to mailing list members, which probably only want to believe spam checks
run on their own site (assuming the mailing list fans out to remote users).
So keep tag level high or undef, and keep tag2 level the same as kill level 
(for the mailing list).

Exactly.

Quarantining is completely independent of delivery, one does not affect
the other. And quarantining does not propagate to recipients. So enable
or disable quarantining spam for a mailing list as you wish, it will only
affect you as administrator (stores junk to local disk and keeps your
conscience clean in case of a query), but does not affect recipients.

Right.
