I can't sam the user (root) mailbox as "Mailbox does not exist"  I
was successful in setting up the Shared mailboxes which work just
fine but I want to get rid of this read access I have on user/

What is the Mailbox "user (root)"?

well I don't know what else to call it.
user/josh
user/stef
etc...
user seems to be the or a root of the mailbox hierarchy for users.  I
guess Shared is also at this level.

"user" does not relly exists. To work below user use "user/
*" (recursive) or
"user/%" (only one level below user).

thanks, didn't know about %.

this is what I get from lam now:

localhost> lam user/%
user/christen:
   christen lrswipcda
user/jhurd:
   jhurd lrswipcda
user/junkmail:
   jhurd lrswipcda
   junkmail lrswipcda
user/notjunkmail:
   jhurd lrswipcda
   notjunkmail lrswipcda
user/stef:
   stef lrswipcda

it looks to me like I should not have permission to see these mailboxes?

Show your imapd.conf and tell us "Who" you are.

I login as emailadmin as both cyrus and cyrusimap don't allow logins with the following error:
Mail is not enabled for this user at /System/Library/Perl/5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm line 118
