[Dovecot] multi-instance doveadm user -m woes

I'm having difficulty with the doveadm who command on a multi-instance setup of dovecot. When I run the who command on the non-standard instance with the -m flag (to see their mail location), this happens:
[root at wardentest3 dovecot]# doveadm -i mailtest user -m warden
doveadm(root): Error: user warden: Initialization failed: Namespace 'INBOX.': Ambiguous mail location setting, don't know what to do with it: /var/spool/mail/root (try prefixing it with mbox: or maildir:)
I tried adding my mail_location setting as location to both of my legacy and default namespaces, but got the same error.
I also tried adding the -a flag like so:
doveadm user -a /var/run/dovecot/mailtest/auth-userdb -m warden
doveadm(root): Error: userdb lookup: connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb) failed: Connection refused
(the default instance is currently stopped)
and combining -a and -i out of curiosity:
[root at wardentest3 conf.d]# doveadm -i mailtest user -a /var/run/dovecot/mailtest/auth-userdb -m warden
doveadm(root): Error: user warden: Initialization failed: Namespace 'INBOX.': Ambiguous mail location setting, don't know what to do with it: /var/spool/mail/root (try prefixing it with mbox: or maildir:)
I have 2 instances, default and mailtest:
[root at wardentest3 conf.d]# doveadm instance list

/var/run/dovecot/mailtest mailtest 2012-05-11 10:57:16 yes
/var/run/dovecot default 2012-05-11 10:54:09 no
my doveconf -n for the mailtest instance:
