#1)
Standalone gnus suck from pop3.
(setq mail-sources
        '((pop :user "username"
               :server "pop3.mailserver.com"
               :password "evil")))
#2)
You can use fetchmail.

#3) 
You can use fetchmail and procmail to split your incoming mail.
I think this is the best way.  Gnus will suck you mail in from files.

Good luck.
