does piping passes the Spamassassin settings?

I was wondering in the old days i had my ticket system uses pop3 account to download emails and spam was so low, but now after piping the emails via support@xxxxxxxx.net: "|/home/login/www/admin/pop3pipe.php"
i'm getting tons of email messages per day.

would that be a possibility for emails to avoid spam rules or what?

Thank you.

AFAIK, if you use a forwarder (which piping would) then the cPanel implementation of SpamAssassin is indeed bypassed. If you were to use MailScanner, then it would definitely would not be bypassed.

Hi Bashar

True. True. However, it still works just fine

just wondering is there any built-in way with cpanel to use their spamassasin or any other software automatically instead of installing additional software?
