Can't get my mail.

Hi.  I'm using gnus 5.10.7 with the win32 native XEmacs 21.4.19, the
non-mule version.  I've used cygwin with getmail to get my mail into a
spool file (mbox format) in c:\cygwin\home\afabian\spool.  I have the
following in my init.el file:

(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.west.earthlink.net"))
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nntp "news.gmane.org")
                                      (nnml "")))
(setq mail-sources
      '((file :path "C:\\cygwin\\home\\afabian\\spool")))

There's an email in the spool file.  I fetched it with getmail under
cygwin, so it probably has UNIX-style newlines.  This doesn't seem to
get my mail into any groups.  I've spent several hours trying various
things (I started with maildir, but I think Windows didn't like some
renaming some lisp function was trying to do; I don't know; I don't
even care too much, I just want to read my mail with gnus.)  I don't
see a mail.misc group being created, but ~/Mail exists and has a
"drafts" directory.

Any help would be appreciated!
