Administrators don't have permission to delete mailboxes by default. It
must be given explicitly.

I'm using version 2.1.15, so this informatio is correct for that version:

Only users who have create "c" permission on a mailbox can also delete it.
Use the listacelmailbox command in cyradm to see mailbox permissions:

    lam user.xxxxx

To give cyrus create permission in order to be able to delete a mailbox:

    sam user.xxxxx cyrus c

Now the mailbox can be deleted:

    dm user.xxxxx

> 2. The User have no permission to create his own folders into his mailbox.

Not sure about that one. What does lam user.xxxxx say? Does the user have
create permission?
