I'm also using postfix+cyrus-imapd-2.1.16, and getting same
errors. But for me they are always caused by SPAM. Maybe it comes from
broken SPAM mailer which fails '\0' handling. I receive neither of
mailing lists so I don't know where the problem is in your case.

Anyway, RFC822 doesn't forbid using NUL characters in mails, but cyrus
imap server rejects them. From the point of view of interoperability,
I want to accept them, if possible. Needless bounces are annoying.
