Seems odd. Are you running this as the cyrus admin user? I see a # 
prompt which leads me to think you may be running this as root. From 
your examples you're running with unixhierarchysep enabled. Have you 
tried running against user^micro^Test ? I don't run with 
unixhierarchysep so I'm not sure that's actually needed when passing 
mailbox names to the cyrus tools. If you aren't running 
withunixhierarchysep then you definitely should be using 
"user.micro.Test" and not "user/micro/Test".
