That's weird, I would have swear that I was using altnamespace, but 
looking at my config file I somehow didn't.

Setting it now to 1, and removing my user from admins and imap_admins 
did the trick, except the folders were on the top level (as 
altnamespace:1 would do).

Set altnamespace back to 0 and it was working. I see all my emails and 
folders. Even the seen state is preserved.

Then I tried adding myself back to admins: no good again.

But adding myself to imap_admins does seem to work.

Except now I don't see the special folders, like DELETED, other user 
folders, etc. But it's not too bad I guess.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Do I need to do anything else? Maybe another reconstruct or something?
