user prefs are not global. But folder_prefix setting can be set in
SquirrelMail configuration utility and in user preferences.

I still don't see any good reason. You can always hose your setup by
creating invalid configuration file. First UW configuration file line is
not logical. It does not look like configuration line. It is hard to
control IMAP server setup without any configuration files. Without
configuration file you have to recompile server in order to make it work
in your setup. It is support nightmare for UW imap packagers.
