It does here too... but diplays a fictitious nnml group of the same
name, instead of displaying the nnfolder group.  The nnfolder group is
in fact created, but will only display by 'G m' NEWGROUP <RET> nnfolder <RET>.

I have (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnml "")))

Will that cause  the above reported behavior?  Should that be a list
that includes "nnfolder".... what is the syntax?

What other setting may affect this?

I have two more nnml servers that are only declared in Server Buffer
not in .gnus.

So in .gnus  I have  nnml ""

in Server buffer:

nnml ""
nnml "mail2"
nnml "n2m"
