Is it just spam that has Postini in its headers, or all mail to that
address?

Have you or a mail administrator for your domain signed up with Postini
for spam filtering?  If so, all mail for the domain will flow through
Postini's servers.  If your mailbox isn't enabled for filtering or is
set to not filter, all the spam you previously got from anywhere will
show Postini in the headers.  For that matter, all of your mail to that
address will have Postini in the headers.
