I had a working dovecot install before I tried to implement shared
folders using namespaces.

I added the following to /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:

namespace private { separator = prefix = inbox = yes }

I prefer to define everything, even the values that have a default, so
I would define location (even if mail_location should apply to the default namespace)
and the separator.

namespace public {

separator = / prefix = location = maildir:/home/public/shared/Maildir } </pre>

Also, you should really have distinct prefix (as stated in the example
config). I would specify inbox = no, although this also might be implied. I suppose that </pre> comes form some forgotten HTML but is not in
your conf. g
