Problem w/ 2.2.4 and unixhierarchysep: yes

[AJ]

The pieces begin to come together here.. hopefully someone else benefits 
from this post.  I have managed to track the problem down to
not just accounts with a dot in the mailbox name.
This problem is occuring on mailboxes with quotas only.
Mailboxes that do not have quotas do not experience this issue.
My imapd.conf file is below, does anyone know why this is happening?
Once I issue these command in cyradm, this issue happens for the 
mary.jones mailbox.

localhost> sq user/mary.smith 8192
quota:8192
localhost> lq user/mary.smith
  STORAGE 1/8192 (0.01220703125%)

Here is imapd.conf:

configdirectory: /var/cyrus/imap
partition-default: /var/cyrus/spool/imap
admins: cyrus
sievedir: /var/cyrus/sieve
sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail
hashimapspool: true
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
sasl_mech_list: PLAIN LOGIN
altnamespace: yes
unixhierarchysep: yes

Thanks.
