It appears that Outlook (2002, at least) can - I tried this here, and the
message gets moved by Outlook into the secondary folder, then filtered back
by SpamBayes into the Inbox and stays there.  I can't be sure that this
works with other Outlook versions (or even in other situations - here
everything was on an Exchange store), but it's possible at least some of the
time.
