I think that Gnus keeps additional information (such as the article
number) in X- headers in the nnfolder files, and gets really really
angry at you if you put a message in without them.
I think that an IMAP server is the best way. This way, everything is
maintained on the server. Simon tries hard to make nnimap
interoperate with other IMAP clients, even in places such as expiry
where Gnus operates rather differently than other IMAP clients.
The next best way would be nnmh. There, no Gnus state is kept in the
actual folder directory; only in ~/.newsrc.eld. But you must not
delete the last message in a folder, or else! (Netscape doesn't read
MH format, I think. But of course MH does...)
