Ok,

I've done what Kai suggested and it worked perfectly. The detail that
was missing on his recipe was to add _all_ nnml groups and then run
nnml-generate-nov-databases. You don't need to do that for each
group. :-)  Well, I'm a Gnus beginner, so I wasn't expecting that :-)) 


Thanks to all of you who helped me. Using gnus to fetch, filter and
read mail is much more productive than fetchmail, procmail and then
gnus... :-) 


Thanks again,
