I also wanted to have most gnus stuff (especially News and Mail) in some
hidden directory (I called in ~/.gnus.d/). Therefore I have
(setq gnus-home-directory "~/.gnus.d/"
gnus-init-file "~/.gnus.el"
message-directory (expand-file-name "Mail/" gnus-home-directory))
in my ~/.emacs (it must be in ~/.emacs rather than ~/.gnus.el so that
the variable is already set to my likings when gnus is loaded).
Using that setup, ~/.gnus.d/ contains the Mail and News folders, and
also the .newsrc, .newsrc.eld, and .gnus.registry.eieio files. I've
simply moved them from $HOME in there.
HTH,
Tassilo
