Bad news, I set up a nnmaildir server with a blank string for a name,
and it worked just fine. Right after you search a group and it fails,
can you show me the beginning value of this server in
`nnmaildir--servers': not the whole thing with all the message headers,
but the part that looks like:

(#1="" . #s(nnmaildir--srv :address #1# :method
			    (nnmaildir #1#
				       (directory "/tmp/emacs-gnus-mock-6ri742/test/")
				       (get-new-mail nil))
			    :prefix #1# :dir "/tmp/emacs-gnus-mock-6ri742/test/" :ls directory-files :groups #<hash-table equal 3/3 0x1588ffa44bcf> :curgrp #59=#s(nnmaildir--grp :name #7="mails" :new
