Get rid of the "dbox-Mails"-folder

[Hativ]

Would it be possible to add the possibility in future releases that 
DIRNAME respectively FULLDIRNAME could be empty (and works properly)?

Hey Aki,

DIRNAME with empty value has no effect, just like with FULLDIRNAME. 
"~/sdbox" instead of "~/" doesn't change that..
