Hey, I got it! I was directing the fetched mail to procmail using the -f
option. This caused the "From " line to be regenerated, which is
inacceptable to cyrus IMAP, but it was needed when I was storing my
emails in an mbox format. Then I had to use spamassassin's -F0 option to
get rid of that same line.

Now I am using the simpler solution instead of trying to negating a
negative to a positive. :-}
