You can customize the variable `gnus-default-article-saver':

,----[ <f1> v gnus-default-article-saver RET ]
| gnus-default-article-saver is a variable defined in `gnus-art.el'.
| 
| Documentation:
| A function to save articles in your favourite format.
| The function must be interactively callable (in other words, it must
| be an Emacs command).
| 
| Gnus provides the following functions:
| 
| * gnus-summary-save-in-rmail (Rmail format)
| * gnus-summary-save-in-mail (Unix mail format)
| * gnus-summary-save-in-folder (MH folder)
| * gnus-summary-save-in-file (article format)
| * gnus-summary-save-body-in-file (article body)
| * gnus-summary-save-in-vm (use VM's folder format)
| * gnus-summary-write-to-file (article format -- overwrite).
| 
| You can customize this variable.

,----[ (info "(gnus)Foreign Groups") ]
| `G f'
|      Make a group based on some file or other
|      (`gnus-group-make-doc-group').  If you give a prefix to this
|      command, you will be prompted for a file name and a file type.
|      Currently supported types are `mbox', `babyl', `digest', `news',
|      `rnews', `mmdf', `forward', `rfc934', `rfc822-forward',
|      `mime-parts', `standard-digest', `slack-digest', `clari-briefs',
|      `nsmail', `outlook', `oe-dbx', and `mailman'.  If you run this
|      command without a prefix, Gnus will guess at the file type.  *Note
|      Document Groups::.
`----

If the guessed file type is incorrect you should use `babyl' for RMAIL
files.

Bye, Reiner.
