FCC is a feature of the Emacs mail-mode, which obviously knows nothing about
IMAP.  IMAP-FCC was added by Rob F to save a file copy *before* we hand the
message over to mail-mode.

To get a "From:" header in the IMAP-FCC copy, you should set the
`vm-mail-header-from' variable so that you don't depend on mail-mode to fill
it in for you.  I think we had a discussion about it earlier in the mailing
list.

The comma-separated list is not documented in the manual, which probably
means that I don't approve of it.
