What about /home/mail/public, or /home/mail?
/home/mail/public/Harm: /home/mail/public/Spam:
These are invisible to Dovecot. They need to begin with a dot.

The only subscriptions file should be in /home/mail/public.
When I try connect to the server by Outlook, I get error: Permission denied
I guess it didn't have access to /home/mail/public. But you shouldn't rely on Outlook for your error reporting, who knows what it did to get that error message. If there's nothing in Dovecot's logs, try manually instead:
1 login user pass 2 list "" * 3 select Public/Spam 3 subscribe Public/Spam Where does it fail?
