First of all, let's assume that when you say "If mail is bounced as SPAM ..." 
you mean "if mail is detected (by some analyzer) as spam ...".

SMTP AUTH *is* optional: when activated, the only messages rejected will be 
the ones coming from a non authenticated user and sent to <some remote 
address>, hence blocking any open-relay exploit. Then your case "from <my 
address> to <some remote address>" will be accepted and processed *only* if 
<my address> is truly authenticated.

The tricky thing remaining is managing the case "from <my address 1> to <my 
address 2>, that even if SMTP AUTH is on would get through.

Then using the latest James v2.2.0a# alpha releases you can use the new 
SMTPAuthSuccessful matcher to achieve what you want:

      <processor name="spam">
         ...
         <!-- If the sender is an authenticated local user notify him -->
         <mailet match="SMTPAuthSuccessful" class="ToProcessor">
            <processor> spam_notification</processor>
         </mailet>

         <!-- If the sender is a fake local user ignore -->
         <mailet match="SenderHostIs=mylocalhost1,mylocalhost2" class="Null"/>

         <!-- The sender could be only a remote user (true or fake), so notify 
him -->
         <mailet match="All" class="ToProcessor">
            <processor> spam_notification</processor>
         </mailet>
      </processor>
