To organize my Emacs/Gnus files, I use ~/gnus/ as home directory for
mails and news. 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?

`nnfolder-directory' is a server variable, see (info "(gnus)Server
Variables").

Probably you want to set `message-directory' (and maybe also
`gnus-directory').
Bye, Reiner.
