And here's mine.  I'm not sure now why I needed the "don't look at
empty files" predicate (but I do recall going to great pains to insert
it for some reason).  But it's here:

(setq
 mail-sources '((directory
		 :path "~/.incoming/"
		 :predicate (lambda (f)
			      (not (zerop (nth 7 (file-attributes f)))))
		 )) ; terry gnus
 mail-source-delete-incoming t		; terry gnus
)

For nnml:FOO, I have my incoming handler drop it into ~/.incoming/FOO.spool
