I ended up having to add this to my ~/.gnus, because if I happened to be in
'/' when I check my mail, it tries to connect to ftp server 'po' whilst
doing an (exand-file-name "po:wmperry")
(add-hook 'nnmail-pre-get-new-mail-hook
(lambda ()
(cd (expand-file-name "~/"))))
Looks like you could get around this by not doing an expand-file-name until
_after_ some of the other checks for whether we are doing a POP drop. I
don't have time right now though... any volunteers?
BTW: This is XEmacs 20.1, 19.15, 20.0, all with efs.

I think this is a problem with Gnus up until Gnus 5.4.30 or something;
this has been fixed in recent Gnus releases. I think.
