KMail2 folder confusion

I did a new install (new .kde) and when I started Kontact/KMail there 
were no folder at all.

I then created an Akonadi-resource pointing to 
/home/myname/.local/share/local-mail. This seemingly works fine, the 
folder is there so to speak. I could then import all my old email 
folders from a backup using KMail import function.

Good, or so it seems/seemed.

Browsing around looking for hints/solutions as to why virtuoso-t is 
grabbing my cpu I found hints that Akonadi or KMail save all mails now 
in .../local/share/.local-mail

Curious I looked in ../local/share and for sure there is a 
.local-share.directory ... and in this are all my folders, inbox 
included. In ../local/share/local-mail there are only 3 folders, cur - 
new - tmp.

I am more than a little bit confused, is there an "underlying" logic 
here that yes, local-mail is created but .local-mail.directory is where 
all mail should actually be. Or is my mail setup / akonadi configuration 
as confused as I feel?

hope someone knows..
