The man page has this suspicious paragraph:

       diskdevice
              Default: same as diskname.  The name of the disk device to be 
backed up.  It may be a
              full device name, a device name without the /dev/ prefix, e.g. 
sd0a, or a mount point
              such as /usr.

They say "mount point" rather than "directory".

I could change the diskdevice to the actual mount point (/). But then
there is paragraph concerning "include" directive in DLE:

              All include expression are expanded by amanda and concatenated in 
one file and passed
              to gnutar as a --files-from argument. They must start with  "./"  
and  containing  no
              other "/".

So setting the include file to "./var/spool/imap/user/[a-h]*" would
not work.

Cheers,

Rodrigo
