Same here.

Regardless wether this patch is applied or not: it doesn't change anything
here. The only way to change the defaultdelivery is using a .qmail file or a
program in programDeliveryPath (if I haven't got something substantially
wrong regarding this patch). DefaultDelivery (assuming it is not a program
Delivery) is _always_ appended to homeDirectory/MailMessageStore, not only
homeDirectory.
