That's a bit weird way to set them up. I'd think that the second
namespace doesn't do anything useful since it would work the same with
the first namespace as well. Except the INBOX location perhaps is
different then.

No. That's way too much of a special case. Best would be if you just
managed to move all the mailboxes to ~/mail/ and make Dovecot use only
that directory.
