I've shceduled a job under sa account (I've changed the password
though),this job access local folder of the box running SQL server.I have
added sa to the sysadmin role and it dose have access to the local folder
..How is it possible as *sa* is a sql server account and how it has the
enough permissions to access local file system?

Thanks a lot

It's executing under the security context of the SQL Agent
service account. It's explained in the following article:
