Take a look at the Foreign Groups and the Directory Groups in the Gnus
Manual.  In the *Group* buffer type G m, choose a name for the group
and the method nndir.  When asked for the address type the directory
where the mails (with numerical names) are stored in.  

This is a read-only method, for full access use the nnmh or nnml
method instead.
