I've had to deal with this same misbehaving IMAP client.
The good news is that if you do set your maildir as an absolute path the
client will put mail it sends into "Sent" and stuff you trash into "Trash".
The bad news is that although it does now list all your other mailboxen
via the little triangle in the Mail Account list.. they are NOT nested
nor even alphabetized! This makes it totally useless for anything but
INBOX for fetching. I sent them a trace of their misbehavior months
ago.....maybe you can get their attention, Thomas.

OK, I thought access to "/" was restricted by default.
It's not. By default, imapd is just like ssh or ftp.
So, I will report to Palm, that they should not only search the #mh
namespace, right? They should search all or only the default namespace?
No.
They should search all personal namespaces, not just the last one in
the personal namespace list. It's OK to search "#mh/", but not to the
exclusion of "".
And provide them this answer from uw-imap:
* NAMESPACE (("" "/")("#mhinbox" NIL)("#mh/" "/")) (("~" "/"))
(("#shared/" "/")("#ftp/" "/")("#news." ".")("#public/" "/"))
Right. There are three personal namespaces there: "", "#mhinbox", and
"#mh/". A LIST of each of these on your system will show that only ""
is useful. On other systems it may be a different story.
