This is a subtle difference between local(8) and pipe(8). 

local(8) delivers mail for real users that are required to have a
home directory. It exportes HOME and changes directory to $HOME
before delivering mail to a command in their .forward file.

pipe(8) delivers mail for service accounts that are not required
to have their own home directory, for example:

postfix:*:1002:1002:postfix:/no/home:/no/shell
milter:*:999:999:milter:/no/home:/no/shell

pipe(8) already has an explicit 'directory=pathname' argument to
specify the execution directory, but it doees not (yet) have an
option to specify '{ environment = HOME=/path ...}'.
