Assume a user who gets email caled help.

The spam determination  is run when the email  arrives/is delivered to
help.  The email is either directed into the spam folder (fileinto) or
the imap inbox (keep).

On the roundup server, you run the mailgw in imap mode on a regular
basis (e.g. out of cron) to collect email from the spam free "help"
mailbox and process it.

If you are receiving email on the same server where roundup is
running, you can set up another alias say: roundup and in sieve use
"redirect roundup" which is an alias that runs the roundup gateway in
normal sendmail/postfix mode where the message is piped into the mail
gateway on stdin. Note that emails sent directly to roundup will
bypass the spam filter.

Does that help you see how the gateway is used?
