For us postmaster is ultimately forwarded to a folder in my account, so I 
guess the BCC idea could explain that.  And yes, if they show up in my 
inbox, then that could be because the spam filters didn't catch it.  It 
never occurred to be that there could be a BCC causing this.  Will a BCC in 
a message show up in the logs anywhere?

Are you sure you're not being BCC'd?  Much spam will BCC the postmaster of
the domain.

As for your inbox, are those just slipping through your spam filtering?

Subject: [IMail Forum] Other users' mail shows up in my inbox


I've got this strange thing that has been happening for a long time now, but
it is now annoying me.  I've got my server set up to move anything that has
been flagged as spam to a folder called "spam".  This is done regardless of
user and sends the message to a folder called "spam" in every users' account
(so to clarify, every user has their own "spam" folder).

Okay, that being said, sometimes, spam sent to other users will end up in
folders under my account.  Usually in my own "spam" folder (which is strange
but I don't care about that), but sometimes it shows up in my inbox.  This
even occurs for spam sent to users that don't even exist on my server
anymore.

I'd love to be able to stop this from happening, and I'm very curious to
find out why it is even happening at all.  Does anyone have any thoughts
about this?  I'd really appreciate any help.
