I think, I only use the following:

    (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
                   '(nnimap "mail"
                            (nnimap-stream shell)
                            (nnimap-shell-program
                             "MAIL=maildir:$HOME/mail /usr/lib/dovecot/imap")))

Gnus should also be able to handle maildirs.
