The cookbook explains how to use the agent for both mail and news.  I
want to go on using my regular offline mail reading (fetchmail and
qmail) for mail, and try using the agent for news.  I have tried:

(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.std.com")) 

(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods 
      '((nnml "private"))) 
     (setq nnmail-spool-file "~/Mailbox") 

I have mail in that spool file, and gnus doesn't read it. 

Is there a way to read my mail from the local spool and news via the
agent from my isp?

(I have tried the cookbook, and seemed to have trouble getting the
mail sent.)
