I've been attempting the same with Cyrus and get the same results.  The 
interesting thing is if I take the same string (like 
{127.0.0.1:143/imap/authuser=root//user=dan_austin}INBOX) and plug it 
into the 'mtest' command from the c-client package, it works OK.  I have 
not tried this with the production release with Asterisk.  Only beta's 1-4.
