Sorry, but I think you did your comparison wrong.  Possibly the tool
which extracted the email from the cyrus server performed the same
transformation that Thunderbird does.

No. Cyrus stores each mail in its own file. All I did was:
TB | File | Save as.... | "1.eml"
scp root@<imap server>:/<mailbox store path>/<mail folder path>/749\. 2.eml
md5sum 1.eml 2.eml
b98d288357e384b8f58fe332ed65748b  1.eml
b98d288357e384b8f58fe332ed65748b  2.eml
(the md5sum will be different for you, as my mail contains the Received: headers from my server.) Given that I don't think TB changes the email on the server, what TB saved is exactly what I received, verbatim, on the wire.
