Could be a syntax issue, I think gnus expects an alist. Mine looks
like this [pgnus 80]:
(setq nnmail-spool-file
      '((pop 
	 :server "pop.server"
	 :user "jsaylor")
	(file
	 :path "/var/spool/mail/jsaylor")))

Accordingly, I would rewrite it like this:
(setq nnmail-spool-file 
        '((file
        :path (expand-file-name "~/Mailbox"))))

[also adding the expand-file-name call to ~/Mailbox to avoid twiddle
problems]

Good luck!
