You no doubt realize by the responses that this is by design so that
browsing the spam folder won't trigger any nasties like web bugs or
worse.  Setting mime_defang to 0 will disable this safety feature.

But what you probably really want to do is to restore the original
message on any particular message that you want to look at by using
the -d option to spamassassin.

  | spamassassin -d

That will deconstruct the defanged headers and restore the message
back to exactly what it would have been if spamassassin had never
tagged it.

I personally prefer mime_defang and then just spamassassin -d any
particular message that I want to restore.
