I specifically tested for this when consolidating various Gmail addresses behind an Apps account, and my fix was similar: a match on * seems to include spam.

It's slightly bizarre that the email forwarding you can configure in settings would not skip all spam checks, and not even indicate as much.

A lot of people forward their email through gmail account exactly because of this feature - to filter out spam, since gmail filter is one of the best.
