Hmm...I'd bet that I had such setup working normally in the past except
that instead of having:

[email protected]
[email protected]
...

I was having just: 

user1
user2

There are actually three users with 6 accounts - 4 are mine + my wife &
mother.

I was using posting styles in the past and have them setup now, but the
problem is selecting right IMAP folders.

Too bad, I haven't preserve the whole old setup, but will try to google
to find posts on which it was based...there were many posts about using
Gnus+local dovecot instead of using (buggy) maildir back-end.
