It's not.  By default, imapd is just like ssh or ftp.

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 "".

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.
