    Hi Leon,

    The problem is that non-encoded 8bit data is not allowed in message
    headers and Cyrus-IMAPd prevents from any problem by replacing those chars
    with X. Your testmail were sent from hotmail which should then be called
    broken.

    >From what I know you have to fix the problem before the mail reaches the
    cyrus message store. Maybe you can fix those mail with amavis, at least
    amavis warns you that the mails are broken (BAD HEADER). I don't think
    there is a way to let cyrus handle those broken messages.

    Regards,
    Simon
