Perhaps I answered my own question.  The host helpful reference I found on
configuring NS4 for IMAP is at
http://searchpdf.adobe.com/proxies/0/33/89/11.html.

I set my advanced IMAP option: "Allow server to override these namespaces"
to off, and "Personal Namespace" to "" (two double quotes), and other
namespaces to null (nothing).  There are still some bugs in NS even with
this.  I found that you must exit NS immediately after subscribing to
folders, or NS will get confused.
