IsADirectoryError: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/var/spool/mail/telegram'

I am trying to setup this nice service. I followed all instructions - and created an (empty) folder /var/spool/mail/telegram. After firing up systemd service and look at status of email-to-telegram I see the message above (but the service is running). I copied a message to the folder but nothing happens API token and chat_id are set correctly.

Here the complete systemd-status messages:

I solved it by myself. The explanation in the config.ini was misleading me. The path should point to the mailbox-file... After changing this everything works like a charm.
