I somehow managed to get it partly working (although I didn't change a bit on the configuration I posted before) - the directory and the active file is now created in the right place. But now (it hadn't occured before!) the new group (nnml+archive:outbox) doesn't show up in gnus. Moreover, if I start gnus, the nnml "archive" server is not included in the Server buffer, but an nnfolder "archive" server is there (although my configuration doesn't contain anything about this nnfolder thing, and it seems to be configured with default values as well). But after I had posted some mail and they had been Gcc-d to nnml+archive:outbox, the nnml "archive" server does show up in the Server buffer, although Gnus says that it's an ,,ephemeral'' (or sg. like this) group, which I have no idea what should mean. But indeed, if I restart gnus, the nnml "archive" server doesn't show up again among the servers till I post a new message. I'm getting confused. :-) Is it such a bad idea to use the nnml backend for archiving messages? :) Nnfolder worked fine.
