Namespace problem

[Edward Rudd]

I'm assuming that you are logging in as a Cyrus admin user..
An admin user does not have an inbox so NIL is the correct response.. 

Now, if you are NOT logging in as the admin user..
did you copy over the mailboxes.db file?
That file includes the list of all the mailboxes.. if that is not copied
over than cyrus thinks there are no mailboxes and if there are no
mailboxes then it will return NIL for each users inbox..
