I think this is an MTA problem, rather than a Cyrus problem.

The "+spam" was removed between delivery by the outside world to Postfix
and delivery by Postfix to amavisd-new.  The logs back this up:

Looks like Postfix, or maybe Postfix's LMTP interface to amavisd-new, is
wrongly configured.

Try doing a manual LMTP delivery to Cyrus, and to amavisd-new for
comparison.  ie:

  foo$ telnet localhost 2003

  mail from:<nobody at no.domain>
  rcpt to:<user1+spam>
  data

[etc]

and the same with "telnet localhost 10024".  Compare the headers and the
logs and it should be obvious what's happening.
