When I get to Gnus's Groups buffer after launching Gnus and it does
the select and split processes, the mailboxes are visible just like
all the NNTP newsgroups I am subscribed to. As far as I can tell,
this is the default behavior.

No, other than what you see in the split rules. I don't know how
to use those things and this works well enough for my needs.

I didn't. They are whatever is the default- I like to keep it as
simple as I can, to match my rather simple knowledge of Lisp, Emacs
and Gnus. What Gnus are you using and which backend for mail? I am
using 5.10.6 and nnml.
Here's my whole .gnus in case it helps or offers some clue:
(setq user-full-name "Tim McNamara")
(setq user-mail-address "[EMAIL PROTECTED]")
(setq gnus-agent nil)
(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.isp.com"))
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnml ""))
(eval-after-load "mail-source"
'(add-to-list 'mail-sources '(pop :server "pop.isp.com"
:user "uuuuuuuuuu"
:password "xxxx")))
(setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
(setq smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.isp.com")
(setq smtpmail-auth-credentials
'(("smtp.isp.com" 25 "uuuuuuuuuu" "xxxxx")))
(setq gnus-confirm-mail-reply-to-news t)
;;Not currently using spam.el but hope to someday
;;once I understand the configuration
;;(setq spam-use-stat t)
;;(spam-initialize)
(setq nnmail-split-methods 'nnmail-split-fancy)
(setq nnmail-split-fancy
'(| ("to" "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "iBOB")
("to" "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "Rivendell")
("to" "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "NetBSD")
("to" "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "Inbox")
;;(: spam-split)
"mail.misc"))
(setq nnmail-crosspost nil)
(setq gnus-auto-expirable-newsgroups
"mail.misc\\|Inbox\\|iBOB\\|NetBSD\\|Rivendell")
