    Root doesn't matter. The cyrus user needs permission to delete.
    This is a safety feature. sam user.satimiscyrus cyrus all

    It did what you asked, but I don't think you asked for what
    you wanted.

    This looks correct. Note:
    (1) Cyrus user.satimiscyrus = filesystem user/satimiscyrus
    (2) Cyrus user/satimiscyrus = filesystem user^satimiscyrus
    (3) is not a Cyrus mailbox

    I would expect mail addressed to satimiscyrus to end up in (1).

    (2) is not a user mailbox. It could work as a bboard mailbox but
    that's not what you want in this case.
