Comment(by josh):

 Poking around in mutt's source code, I found this in send.c:

 {{{
   /* Don't save a copy when we are in batch-mode, and the FCC
    * folder is on an IMAP server: This would involve possibly lots
    * of user interaction, which is not available in batch mode.
    *
    * Note: A patch to fix the problems with the use of IMAP servers
    * from non-curses mode is available from Brendan Cully.  However,
    * I'd like to think a bit more about this before including it.
    */

 #ifdef USE_IMAP
   if ((flags & SENDBATCH) && fcc[0] && mx_is_imap (fcc))
     fcc[0] = '\0';
 #endif
 }}}

 Note that in my case, IMAP requires no user interaction, since it occurs
 via an SSH tunnel.  I have no problem with having this simply fail if IMAP
 requires interaction (such as a password), as long as it fails in such a
 way that the message doesn't get sent either, and mutt returns an error
 code.
