I find it strange that this kind of configuration even appears to
work. :) If you somehow manage to get it working with v1.0, there's a
good chance that it won't work anymore with v1.1.

So if you want to access "Shared/spamrep" as a mailbox, the prefix must
be Shared/.

If you wanted users to have different views of what the mailboxes look
like, you could just change the location to be different for different
users. Create symlinks to the visible global mailboxes to those
locations.
