[MlMt] default mailbox for find

Following up on my own message again, I notice this in the output of 
"defaults read com.freron.MailMate":

     MmMailboxChooserBindings =     (
                 {
             long = "imap://user@foo.example.com/XXX";
             short = XXX;
         }
     );

Where "imap://user@foo.example.com" is the same as the value of 
MmDefaultAccount and "XXX" is the name of the smart mailbox that is 
seemingly being used as the default search target. I guess this may be 
the reason.

I also notice that the value of MmDefaultAccount is an account that no 
longer exists. That doesn't seem to be causing any problems but it's 
interesting to note.

Not exactly sure how to change this to work the way it used to and of 
course, no idea how it got to be this way.
