I finally found it in ~/.sylpheed-2.0/folderlist.xml.
At the beginning there are lines that look like this:

<folderlist>
    <folder type="mh" name="...." path="/home/<user>/....">

I deleted the newly created ~/.sylpheed-2.0 and made a link to an
existing one.  I'm afraid I didn't realize that the old name was still
in there....

Anyway, I found this instructive. Thanks to you and Frank.
