Yikes! I thought this was a private install. :( The namespace would be a pretty radical change. It tells dovecot how to present folders.
I'm not a namespace guru - but I'm fairly sure that's the issue. http://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces
I would suggest creating an alternate config file, using different ports and system directories, to test a namespace change.
It's OK. It appears to not have impacted any existing data. Perhaps just changes how the new folders are managed. I did see a file in my Maildir called 'subscriptions' and when I opened it with a text editor, it had the old invalid IMAP directory structure...should I delete or rename this file on my mailbox and then restart the client to force it to re-build this subscriptions file?
