And I'd suggest that this should be the nnmaildir server's
"create-directory" parameter (where the real maildirs are), rather
than the "directory" parameter (where the symlinks are).  If you
remove a symlink to hide the group from nnmaildir for some reason, you
probably don't want to break deliveries.
