That's because in private namespaces user owns the mails, and "authenticated" doesn't reduce the user's privileges. You could use "owner" instead. Also I don't think you should use ACLs at all here. It's easier and more secure to just make /var/mail/virtual non-writable to imap process. For example change file/dir owners to root and make them world-readable.
