I differ in what I would expect after first email delivery:

/tmp/eximdebug/.beispiel/new/1400577169.H632640P337104.Vietnam
/tmp/eximdebug/.beispiel/maildirfolder
/tmp/eximdebug/cur/
/tmp/eximdebug/new/
/tmp/eximdebug/tmp/
/tmp/eximdebug/maildirsize

To me the master concept is that Exim should only create maildir folders inside
valid top level maildirs.

However, the opposite point is that for the first inbound email to a new
mailbox, your transport specifically set the root maildir directory to a path
you know is actually a folder, but nothing indicates to Exim what actually is
the top level maildir. I don't know if this is solvable without one of the
following paths:
1) another maildir_* option.
2) assume one subdirectory down is root maildir and create {tmp,new,cur}/.
3) make it fail with undeliverable.

I don't know that I like any of those. Any other suggestions?
