weird paths in notmuch database

Hi all,
I have noticed that notmuch ends up with non-existing paths to some
messages. For instance:
$ notmuch search --output=files 'path:/home/**'
/export/home/username/mail//home/username/local/mail/archive/cur/1446805732.2711_9.hostname:2,S
/export/home/username/mail/archive/cur/1446805732.2711_9.hostname:2,S
[...] # more follow
Note that my mail folder is /export/home/username/mail. The first path
does not exist. However, I have a symlink from /home/username/local to
/export/home/username. Could that be the problem?
Also, is there a way to get rid of these non-existent paths in the
database? They are fed to another program in a script and it chokes on
them.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers,
Davide
