Halloechen!
I try to switch to Gnus, using the nnfolder backend for my emails.
For far, I've used KMail. I advised Gnus to split my old mails
(imported via G-f) into several nnfolder files in ~/Mail. So far
no problem.
But how do I access these new folder files? Also G-f? Or is there
a way that Gnus searches the ~/Mail directory for folders by itself?
If I use G-f, Gnus calls these folders e.g.
nndoc+/home/bronger/Mail/Sonstiges:Sonstiges
which is a little bit complicated. Can I change this?
(G-r didn't work.)
Thank you!
Tschoe,
Torsten.

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.

I have "spools" in my ~/mail directory, out of which Gnus makes the
folders in my ~/Mail directory.
I feed the spools with procmail.
