Thanks for mentioning this.  Actually I have it in the server
definition (i.e., not in the select method):

(nnml "mairix"
      (nnml-directory "~/mairix")
      (nnml-active-file "~/mairix/active")
      (nnml-newsgroups-file "~/mairix/newsgroups")
      (nnml-get-new-mail nil))

That seems to work ok.

Michael.
