If you're using procmail, you could look at the X-Original-To (or similar)
header to figure out who the mail is going to.  Otherwise, you could modify
your setup to pass information in to procmail from the MTA.

Ah, there you're talking about spamc/spamd which is a different beasty all
together.  If you want to skip checks based on how you're calling spamc, then
check the value you're going to use for the username and don't call spamc if
you don't want the mail scanned.
