Aki, thanks.

I forgot to write this is meant as a plain vanilla pop/imap multi
user/multi domain server, no special requirements or deviations should be
needed

so I go from
mail_location = maildir:/%Lh/Maildir/:INDEX=/%Lh/Maildir/
to
mail_location = maildir:/%Lh/Maildir/

(not sure whether I might have tried shareing my mailbox across two
domains for myself once?...maybe that's why it's there... not sure)

so I just remove this whole block:

namespace {
    type = shared
    separator = /
    prefix = Shared/%%u/
    location = maildir:/%%Lh/Maildir/:INDEX=/%%Lh/Maildir/Shared/%%u
    # this namespace should handle its own subscriptions or not.
    subscriptions = yes
    list = children
}

thanks again, sorry for dumb questions
