Summary: can't archive INBOX via imaps

Initial Comment:
my mailbox is here:
imaps://mail.myserver.com/INBOX

This is the response I get from archivemail:
/usr/local/bin/archivemail --verbose -d30 -o $HOME/.mail_archive/ --suffix '_%B_%d_%Y' "imaps://username:pas...@ma.../INBOX"
processing 'imaps://username:pas...@ma.../INBOX'
set tempfile directory to '/tmp/tmpjr5EIIarchivemail'
guessing mailbox is of type: imap(s)
Setting imaplib.Debug = 0
establishing secure connection to server mail.myserver.com
logging in to server as username
NAMESPACE response: '(("INBOX." ".")) (("user." ".")) (("" "."))'
IMAP namespace prefix: 'INBOX.', hierarchy delimiter: '.'
Looking for mailbox 'INBOX.INBOX'...
archivemail: Cannot find mailbox 'INBOX' on server.
cleaning up ...
removing stale tempfile directory '/tmp/tmpjr5EIIarchivemail'

I am not certain why it is looking for INBOX.INBOX ?

Message:
Damn, damn, damn. A serious bug in the IMAP namespace handling.
Unfortunately this is bending my IMAP knowledge, so I'll have to look into
this some more. Might not happen this weekend, though. :(
