Hi,

I'm considering switching from mh-e to gnus for mail reading. So I'm
facing the problem of dealing with my old mail, stored in eg.
~/OMail/inbox. 

The manual's chapter "Incorporating Old Mail" takes as an example mbox
to nnml. 

Typing "G f" forces me to give a filename. Giving the directory
OMail/inbox ends up in an error message "Couldn't request group nndoc
...". Giving a single file is of course not really what I would like
to do ...

Can please somebody point me to the right direction ?

Gerd

I'd suggest pointing an nndir group at the mh directory.  Use the
`G d' command.
