As far as I've seen, your questions have been answered:

`C-u G DEL' deletes editable groups, and `C-k' deletes others
(such as nndoc and nndir groups, which are groups where Gnus
never changes the content).

The Incoming files you thought were remnants of a group are just
temporary files stored by development versions of Gnus.

If those don't completely answer your questions, you'll have to
give specific information:

What groups can't you delete?  What backend do they use?
Where are the files that you think aren't being deleted?

Dan
