There isn't a group name since the nnmail subdir isn't picked up. A
nnmaildir directory name where this problem occurs is:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
~/email/Maildir-mbsync/Free/ups-dir/ups-tex
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


which should appear in my setup as a group named

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
ups-tex
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

since the top dir of the maildir is Free.

Also, where should I look for the active file for a nnmaildir ?

Lastly, I noticed the existence of
gnus-subscribe-hierarchical-interactive

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Its value is t
Original value was nil

If non-nil, Gnus will offer to subscribe hierarchically.
When a new hierarchy appears, Gnus will ask the user:

Descend hierarchy alt.binaries? ([y]nsq):
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Is it relevant to this problem ? At the moment Gnus doesn't ask to
descend the hierarchy for ups-dir for instance
