I tried to reproduce this with the latest Emacs CVS checkout, no .emacs
and a minimal .gnus containing essentially the same select methods, but
to no avail.

nnmairix looks at the variable gnus-opened-servers to determine the
available mail back ends. The contents of this variable 
(C-h v gnus-opened-servers RET) should contain the lines

((nnml "")
 ok)

Additionally, you should see no "nnmairix" server whatsoever in this
variable. If there is already a nnmairix server, maybe from your
previous efforts of using nnmairix, you should delete any mairix groups
which still linger around and restart Gnus.
