I'd think so too, but it doesn't work that way : if I set up only one private namespace and no public namespace
like this :

namespace private {
   separator = /
   prefix =
   location = maildir:/courriel/boites/%u:CONTROL=/courriel/meta/%u:INDEX=/var/dovecot-test/indexes/%1u/%u
   inbox = yes
   hidden = no
   list = yes
   subscriptions = yes
}

[Note that I've got in the setup above, I've got no mail_location set up
globally since I set it up in the default namespace.] 

I cannot create a mailbox named "foo.bar" as I could with a global
configuration with no namespace at all.
