Ah, thanks.  This is an important feature.

It does not get created when I kill it.  In fact, if I kill it, I can no
longer do nnmaildir searches: I have to restart GNU Emacs.

To see the buffer in the buffer list, you must do a nnmaildir search and
then eval: (display-buffer (list-buffers-noselect files-only
(buffer-list)))
