Make sure you change all the ports from your imap server to what  
you're running the cache server to.  So, for example, I changed all my  
imap servers (including the auth) to 1143, which is what imapproxy is  
running at.  I did this and now I only see (for the most part)  
in.imapproxyd in my mail.log.
