Ok, I found the source of my problem. I am using altnamespace, and it
is setted on every machine in the Murder. I found out by syslog()ing
variable inimpad.c that mailbox_open_header() try to open
user.admin.user.test123. If don't set altnamespace in the backend, it
work.
Next question : are there implication to having altnamespace set to yes
on frontend, and to no on backend ?
Thank you very for your insight.
