Spam Action "Forward" doesn't work

Well, the thing is that I don't want to deliver spam to users any more; I
just want to be able to check the spam occasionally for false positives. So
thought I could pick up the spam, deliver it to one common e-mail address
(me) passing it through a filtering rule in Outlook to separate it from
ordinary mail and storing it in folder called 'SPAM'.

I wonder way the log records say

Sep  3 14:46:52 ns MailScanner[18921]: Spam Actions: message h83CkgIb019316
actions are bounce,store,forward,postmaster at krnap.cz

!?!?!?

One would expect there ....forward postmaster at krnap.cz (e.g. without the
comma) or forward(postmaster at krnap.cz) or maybe forward
"postmaster at krnap.cz".
I tried to enclose the email address in (double) quotes - no success either.

I'm running out of ideas
