Yes, now I'm getting the spam-test mails from an external account with
fetchmail and they are filtered ok with the script.
I've looked to the postfix main.cf options but I couldn't find what
option let me treat the local SMTP filtering.
Let me understand: postfix understand if the mail il delivered with
sendmail from the local system and so doesn't call the smtp daemon?

Thank you for your patience!

This is my main.cf:

command_directory = /usr/sbin
daemon_directory = /usr/lib/postfix
program_directory = /usr/lib/postfix
sample_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix/examples
readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix
manpage_directory = /usr/share/man
setgid_group = postdrop
append_dot_mydomain = no
smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP test server (Debian/GNU)
biff = no
myhostname = klingon
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
mydestination = klingon, localhost.localdomain, localhost
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
mailbox_size_limit = 0
recipient_delimiter = +
mail_owner = postfix
