Hmm...this sounds suspiciously like Gnus misidentified the format of the
RMAIL file. Is it an older (so-called Babyl format) or newer (mbox
format) RMAIL file?
You can try both ways by giving a prefix arg to
`gnus-group-make-doc-group' (that is, C-u G f) and choosing the
appropriate file type. Hopefully, one or the
other will parse correctly.
