You didn't say if regenerating the nov files did any good.

Like this: M-x generate-nov-data-bases-1 <RET> /path/to/mail.misc-2002

If you don't have long filenames enabled that will be
~/Mail/mail/misc-2002

Other wise:
~/Mail/mail.misc-2002

If it asks you to create a group.  Something is wrong.  Find that
group on your file system and give its full name at the prompt.

You could also delete or rename .overview in that group first.

Looking at your output somemore.. I don't ever see output like that:
Fetching headers for nnml+private:mail.misc-2002...

I never see anything about fetching headers on nnml groups in
*Messages* on startup or any other time.  Only on agentized newsgoups.

You didn't some how get that nnml server under the agent did you?
Depending on your version, you might be able to tell by looking in
server buffer (^) and see if you see (agent) next to it.
