Or you could just use the gui configuration utility provided cyradm.

Okay, I'm even more off-topic.

If I understand exactly what you're saying here, you can share user
folders by adding access lists to the folders.  I don't remember the
exact syntax, but it's going to be something like 

sam everyone lrc user.*

Now for the caveats and notes: sam is short for setaclmailbox.  Everyone
is the user you're setting access for, but I'm not positive that it's
everyone and not everybody or all.  lrc is a string of permission bits,
but I can't remember which ones you really need, and it really depends
on what you want other users to be able to do with other users'
mailboxes.  user.* means all inboxes.  You definitely want to create
user mailboxes under user, not in the root.

Oh, yeah, and I'm not certain I have those args in the right order.  :-|

Now, if anyone could remind me where I put that man page...
