I feel your pain...
Besides using kmail (a KDE MUA under Linux) the way I've found to do it
is to use the roundcube webmail client ( http://www.roundcube.net/ ).
Under Personal Settings/ Folders you *will* see the #User shares.
Subscribe to them there and you will then see them under T-bird and friends.

So if you login as each user one at a time you can subscribe as needed.
 Understand that if a user unsubscribes to any #User folders from the
MUA you'll have to do it again since they won't see it to subscribe once
more.

I don't know if this is a dbmail issue or not.  Controlling ACLs at the
MUA is apparently a black art despite all the claims to the contrary
since very few clients actually do it.  But most allow for subscriptions
so I'm not sure what the magic is with #Users vs anything else.  One
clue might be how the shared folders are listed in DBMA, perhaps the
namespace isn't broadcast exactly per spec?  Anyway, the webmail client
does show #Users as expected.

Good luck.
