Not necessarily.  If you were using the CONTENT_FILTER, you could set the
action for messages flagged as spam to MODERATE rather than DISCARD.  If
you didn't trust your AV system enough to let it delete your mail for you
(and I certainly don't trust mine that much yet), it could make a lot of
sense to flag the message but send it on to LISTSERV anyway.

Would you let SpamAssassin delete LSTSRV-L mail before you saw it? ;)
