Here you are using the nnfolder backend which is a single file based
group which gets loaded into a buffer. If you use nnml or some other
backend you'll get around this..

Are you sure you quit Gnus properly with 'q' in the Group buffer ?
Gnus should save the buffer at that time. You can also do it by
pressing 's' in the group buffer which saves all changes in the state
of groups etc.
