Is the following "legal" for Dovecot? And...is this separation recommended or a bad idea? Particularly I'm asking about the "archives" namespace - I haven't actually implemented this yet and I'm checking before I break something.

10-mail.conf

Primary private namespace

Using sdbox for storage

namespace inbox { type = private separator = / prefix = location = sdbox:/var/mail/%d/%n/sdbox inbox = yes hidden = no list = yes subscriptions = yes }

For long-term archival

namespace archives { type = private separator = / prefix = Archives/ location = mdbox:/var/mail/%d/%n/Archives/mdbox subscriptions = no list = children }

Shared mailboxes

mail_shared_explicit_inbox = yes namespace usershares { type = shared separator = / prefix = shared/%%n/ location = sdbox:/var/mail/%%d/%%n/sdbox subscriptions = no list = children }

Virtual mailboxes - for server-side searches

namespace virtual { prefix = virtual/ separator = / location = virtual:/var/mail/%d/%n/virtual subscriptions = no list = children }
