Interesting.
While I don't use mbox (dbox or maildir) I wouldn't think that would
matter. Your namespace layout looks nearly the same as my own. But to
verify what's going on - post the output of "doveconf namespace".
Possibly just reviewing that output may tell you enough - otherwise
share it (fully) here.
