It won't disappear by itself.

Whether you can safely delete it, well that depends.

The maildir resource may have stored emails there.
Unlikely in your case, but you should at least check.

But the fix only makes the "file:" not appear when you change the config, it 
doesn't change already existing configs (and as I found out meanwhile, the 
path is also stored in the database, not only in the config file mentioned 
earlier).

So, you actually need to reconfigure the existing maildir resource.
Or maybe better in your case, just remove that maildir resource and create a 
new one.

That should be safe, removing a resource won't delete the files.

If that helps, you could of course also remove the mixedmaildir resource 
then...
Or keep on using it and scrap the maildir, whatever you prefer. ;-)

Kind Regards,
Wolfgang
