That location is the file based cache. Depending on cache timeouts and policies 
it will only contain a subset of the data accessible through Akonadi, i.e. 
like the cache directory of Squid only being part of the world wide http 
accessible content.

You write in your first mail that you have a maildir resource pointing to 
~/Mail
Did this directory contain a mail dir structure at this point or was it 
otherwise empty?

Is it empty right now or does it contain subdirectories? (check also for 
"hidden" ones, i.e. starting with a dot).

How does your folder structure below that resource's top level folder look 
like in KMail?

Assuming standard maildir, did you check ~/.Mail.directory?

Cheers,
Kevin
