[Dovecot] dsync, separator, but really - Default Namespace

[Daniel L. Miller]

Just made the leap from 1.2 to 2.0.6 - and several maddening config 
typos I think I have a working system again!  Getting closer to 
converting from maildir to mdbox, but first...

Trying to use dsync gives me:
dsync(root): Fatal: Mail locations must use the same virtual mailbox 
hierarchy separator (specify separator for the default namespace)

Ok - I 've never configured namespaces before...time to learn.  So my 
first attempt - is the following config the same as having no explicit 
namespace declaration?:

# My Default Namespace
namespace {
  type = private
  separator = '.'
  prefix =.
  location = /var/mail/%d/%n/Maildir
  inbox = yes
  hidden = no
  list = yes
  subscriptions = yes
}
