Well the best place to look for guidance is the Emacs wiki

http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GnusMairix

notice the Features section

    - Query mairix with a search term and display results in a group.
    - Easy generation of search queries using the minibuffer or graphical widgets.
    - Generate search queries based on the currently displayed mail.
    - Create permanent nnmairix groups bound to certain mairix searches (“smart” groups).
    - Jump to article in the original group.
    - Update the mairix database.

Once you have it all set up then a quick G-b s in the Group buffer will
create the group.
