      Hi Timo,
This is my current configuration:
mail_location = maildir:/home/mail/%d/%n
mail_extra_groups = mail
namespace public {
separator = /
prefix = Public/
location = maildir:/home/mail/public
}
namespace private {
separator = /
prefix =
inbox = yes
}

System mail user:
first_valid_uid = 8
last_valid_uid = 8

System mail group:
first_valid_gid = 12
last_valid_gid = 12

What's wrong?

I followed instructions in Namespaces, but no luck.
I sent a question about this problem 3th Jul:
..
namespace private works well, but I can't subscribe to namespace
Public in Outlooks Express, The Bat! and Mozilla Thunderbird. Outlook
shows error 'Mailbox doesn't exist: Public'. Same with The Bat!.

Oh, and I guess I asked why do you try to subscribe to that.

You should create e.g. Public/Spam and Public/Ham mailboxes, and
subscribe to them. There should be no need to subscribe to Public.
