I tracked down the reason to maildir names that contain "&"
characters, and that I had in my EXCLUDE_LOCAL (no matter if
literally or included by a * glob).
The attached patch brings me over this failure; no idea if it has any
side effects, I haven't dared to run smd* without --dry-run :)
Cheers,
gregor
