Now I have a thorny problem. Even I set nnfolder-directory in .emacs/.gnus, it's not observed. Evaluation shows it's always ~/Mail/archive" and Gnus keeps creating sub dirs Mail and Mail/archive. Checking nnfolder.el I see (defvoo nnfolder-directory (expand-file-name message-directory) "The name of the nnfolder directory.") Is it owing to defvoo?
