I tried
(setq gnus-home-directory "~/.emacs.d/gnus")
(setq message-directory (concat gnus-home-directory "/Mail"))
in ~/.gnus.el and got "~/News/drafts" for `nndraft-directory'.
It is because `nndraft-directory' is derived from `gnus-directory'
of which the default value is determined by `gnus-home-directory'
before ~/.gnus.el is loaded. Though I don't see why you got
"~/Mail/drafts", not "~/News/drafts". You might have the
environment variable SAVEDIR with the value "~/Mail/" perhaps.
;; gnus.el
(defcustom gnus-home-directory "~/"
...)
(defcustom gnus-directory (or (getenv "SAVEDIR")
(nnheader-concat gnus-home-directory "News/"))
...)
Anyway you seem to need to set `gnus-directory' explicitly like:
(setq gnus-home-directory "~/.emacs.d/gnus"
gnus-directory (concat gnus-home-directory "/News")
message-directory (concat gnus-home-directory "/Mail"))
