Run emacs -q and load this:

(require 'gnus)
;; untested primary select method, should work though
(setq gnus-select-method '(nnnil "nothing"))

(setq mail-sources nil
      gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnml "mail"
                                            (nnml-get-new-mail nil)
                                            ;; should not be necessary but just 
in case...
                                            (nnmail-get-new-mail nil))))

Does your inbox still get emptied?  What's in *Messages*?

I suspect the problem is in nnmail.el:nnmail-get-new-mail-1 from
checking the source code.  But let's make sure your configuration is
clean with this minimal start.

Thanks for your patience.
