When you create the nnmairix server, it asks you which back end it
should use for its searches. It should always use the folder of this
back end for storing the results.

For instance, if you have a primary nnml back end which is mapped to
~/Mail, and you let nnmairix use this back end, it should automatically
put the resulting search folders there.

If this isn't the case, maybe there's something wrong with the
configuration. It would help to see the select method for the back end
you're using (from your .gnus init file), and the select method of the
nnmairix server (do a 'M-e' on the nnmairix group to see it).
