Exim4 & delivery to Cyrus21 mail folders :-(

Hi All

I have been trying to get Exim4 to deliver into a Cyrus21 mail folder.  All 
that happens is that the message ends up in the Inbox.  I have checked to 
make sure the folder actually exists.  I am using the cyrdeliver program 
with the ?m option, so I think that ACLs should not be an issue.  I have 
been through the archives and docs and can't seem to find an answer, so if 
someone would help me I would really appreciate it!

Oh, Cyrus 2.1 is installed on Debian Sarge from the package.

I have tried the simplest syntax for the Exim4 transport I could think of. 
Here is what I have in my Exim4 conf file:

local_delivery_cyrus:
  driver = pipe
  command = /usr/sbin/cyrdeliver -m SPAM -- jim
  user = cyrus
  group = mail
  log_output
  message_prefix =
  message_suffix =


For the ?m option, I have also tried the values user.jim.SPAM and jim.SPAM.

Here is an excerpt from mail.log that gets created when the message comes 
in:

Thanks very much
