# UNIX Hierarchy Convention

# internally all dots to "^", and all "/" to dots. So the "rabbit.holes"
# mailbox of user "helmer.fudd" is stored in "user.elmer^fud.rabbit^holes"
#
# WARNING: This option does NOT apply to admin tools such as cyradm
# (admins ONLY), reconstruct, quota, etc., NOR does it affect LMTP delivery
# of messages directly to mailboxes via plus-addressing.
# See also userprefix and sharedprefix on imapd.conf(5)
unixhierarchysep: no


Anyways, Cyrus can run with either "." or "/" as the mailbox separator. 
Your Cyrus admin chose "/".
