Hi,

I use procmail to store incoming mail into individually
numbered files in various mail directories.  I use gnus
nndir or nnmh to read it.  I would like to use nnml
because of its efficiency, but I cant get gnus to re-scan
the directory.  Pressing 'g' in the group buffer doesnt
do it.  I get the impression that the nnml backend wants
to store the files there itself by reading /var/spool/mail.
Is there a simple solution?
Thanks,

-Truxton
