Okay, I think for David's benefit this is the important part: Michael is
storing the incoming messages in an nnml select method, named "archive".
It's entirely possible that this select method only exists because of
Gnus defaults, and Michael didn't configure anything at all, but the
important thing to note is that, yes, mails are brought in via a mail
source, and then are stored in a select method.
