Can't view (other) users subfolders with imapd 3.0.6

All the namespace conversion is supposed to be encapsulated in a couple
of places. This breaks that, which means that something earlier of later
is doing its own version of pattern to mailbox conversion. Ideally this
would be captured in the abstraction layer in mbname. I haven't looked
deeply though.
It's correct, but it likely points to an abstraction leakage elsewhere.
