You can't use LAYOUT=maildir++ here.

I have this default configuration [0], when use the userdb_mail to

errors [3].
Should I change the namespace configuration here, how? My default
namespaces are inbox and 4archives

Are you intentionally mixing mbox and mdbox? You see that [0] has mbox,
and [2] has mdbox.
