As Patrick says in another reply, spam filtering is best done in the incoming MTA, before it ever gets to Mailman. However, to answer your question, mail to the -owner address is processed through a pipeline of handlers defined as OWNER_PIPELINE in Defaults.py. SpamDetect (i.e.processing of header_filter_rules) is in that pipeline, but it probably isn't feasable to use header_filter_rules for this as the same rules apply to list posts, but you could implement a simple custom handler to discard any message that didn't have a message-id of the form generated by mailman or a mailman-like envelope sender or from address and add that to the OWNER_PIPELINE list.
