    Did you ever try using Gnus' agent support?

    In general, Gnus expects to control everything in its mail backends,
    so it's not surprising that it doesn't really sync with other maildir
    programs. nnmaildir tries (which is probably why it is so slow) but I
    don't think it's the highest on the list of priorities.
