Re: [Dovecot] My "%%" variables in the namespace settings do not appear to be expanding.

This is ok.

namespace { hidden = yes inbox = no list = no location = prefix = INBOX separator = . type = private }

This doesn't much make sense and I doubt Dovecot actually uses it for anything. Just remove it.

namespace { list = children location = maildir:%%h:LAYOUT=maildir++:INDEX=~/shared.%Dn_%Dd prefix = shared/%n@%d.

I forgot, prefix here should contain %%u, not %u, because %u gets expanded to your own username while you want it to be expanding to other users' username.. I'll add a check against this.
