Part of the SpamAssassin Bayesian filter bit works on the headers. If you forward, you no longer have the headers. I asked this very question this past summer in the SpamAssassin list and got a good explanation of why that doesn't work. You can go to their list and check any archives for a good explanation of how it works. I use the "exim" MTA with a thing called SA-exim which is a local filter for exim that hands off to the spamd spamassassin daemon. This is for system wide filtering.
