You could, however, do this:

user.test		no quota
user.mail		quota
user.mail.folder1	(inherit)
user.mail.folder2	(inherit)

etc, assuming you have a setup where it's possible to deny the user 
permission to create direct subfolders of the inbox. I don't know enough 
about Cyrus ACLs and quotas to know if this will work - it's just a 
suggestion. Of course, it may also be unsuitable for your environment.
