I don't think it's that. I don't have a (require 'nnmairix) and now
it's working. I think the problem is that I was investigating mairix by
walking through the info pages, and I had already started Gnus. If you
do that, nnmairix-group-mode-hook, which sets up the keybindings, never
gets called.

BTW, has anyone published a comparison article between all the fancy
nnir and nnmairix search methods yet?
