Wrong.

Never "manually" write to ~/Mail. Gnus gets angry if you do that.
To create a "proper" folder, do this:
G m foo.bar RET nnfolder: RET (the ":" is important)
(now you have an empty group nnfolder:foo.bar)
G f /path/to/old/mbox/file/outside/of/~/Mail RET
(enter this group)
M P a (mark all articles)
B c nnfolder:foo.bar RET (copy them to new group)
Repeat for all groups.
