(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnfolder "mail-external" (nnfolder-directory "~/Mail-external") (nnfolder-newsgroups-file "~/Mail-external/newsgroups") (nnfolder-get-new-mail nil) (nnfolder-active-file "~/Mail-external/active")) t) See (info "(gnus)Mail Folders") for information about these and more server settings.
