I'm trying to use GNUS to read mail for the first time.

Am having problems seting up nnfolder for mailing lists (using procmail).

procmail spools into ~/Spool/rtems, ~/Spool/bbdb, etc.
I want to have the mbox files stored in ~/Mail/Lists/rtems, bbdb, etc.

This is what I have so far:

    (setq nnmail-spool-file 'procmail)
    (setq nnmail-use-procmail t)
    (setq nnmail-procmail-directory "~/Spool/")
    (setq nnmail-procmail-suffix "")

    (setq nnmail-split-methods nil)
    (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnfolder "")))

Server nnfolder:mailinglists looks like this:

    (nnfolder "mailinglists"
          (nnfolder-directory "~/Mail/Lists/")
          (nnfolder-active-file "~/Mail/Lists/active")
          (nnfolder-get-new-mail t))

I created group nnfolder:ml.ding using 'G m' and then edited its
select method to look like:

    (nnfolder ""
          'nnfolder:mailinglists)

When I try to select group nnfolder:ml.ding, GNUS complains: Can't select group
