As the Gnus manual described, if you have one Maildir server, you only
need to specific its directory once. All its subdirectories would be
treated as groups in Gnus.

More importantly, I don't find 'karlderletzte' as a directory in your
config. The way you set the maildir up may have something to do with the
filenames in the karlderletzte folder. That this directory has even more
subdirectories which look like maildir directories is also peculiar.

Have you actually used B m to move email to 'karlderletzte/INBOX' or
'karlderletzte/Sent' folder? Or do you use it for other purposes than
moving email manually into it? Perhaps splitting? Caching?

It would make things a bit more clear if you could let us know if you
configured this karlderletzte folder for some other use. Please have a
look at your Emacs, gnus, notmuch, imap server if any, offlineimap/isync
if any, and backup script if any, configs, and see whether any of them
mentioned 'karlderletzte'.

If you are using macOS or BSD, you can use grep from within Emacs like
this to help you find those lines:

  C-x d ~/path/to/your/config RET
  M-x grep RET
  grep -nHr --null -e 'karlderletzte' * RET
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ this part may have been prefilled for you except
  for the 'r' argument for recursive search, just modify it to your need

If you find anything perhaps it would help us figure out why those file
names become malformed and cause nnir to fail.
