Once the *Completions* window pops up, try adding further characters to what you've typed in the message field, and hitting TAB again. "Cycling" refers to cycling through multiple email addresses of a single record, not selecting one out of several possible records. Once you've hit TAB and it's shown you the possible matching records, you're going to have to give it more input to narrow it down to one. Once you've got one, mail address cycling goes into effect (provided `bbdb-complete-mail-allow-cycling' is set to t).
