Yes, this is a problem with OE. Netscape Messanger works fine as expected.
But this may be also an architecture thing. "Shared Folders" and "Other
Users"
are in general virtual.
Its not possible to view ACL's of this folders with cyradm.
Other things may also cause a problem.
For example, is it possible to drag mail in to the "Shared Folders"?

As I undestood, altnamespace has 2 major features:

1. Users subfolders at the same level of that user Inbox.
2. "Shared Folders" and "Other Users" prefixes.

I think making 1 and 2 separate with different switches in imapd.conf would
be
generally good idea, and solve the problem with OE too.
