FF> Thanks. No, it is not emptied. Messages contains:

OK, excellent.  So there's something not in this configuration but in
yours that triggers the emptying.  This is your configuration:

(require 'gnus)
(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.evilmegacorp.com"))
(setq mail-sources nil
      gnus-secondary-select-methods
          '((nnml "mail")
            (nnimap "asdf"
                                (nnimap-address "localhost")
                                (nnimap-server-port 143)
                                (nnimap-stream network))))

Can you try emacs -q and see if your configuration as stated above
empties your inbox?

If it does, there's three differences:

A) nnml-get-new-mail and nnmail-get-new-mail
B) the secondary nnimap server
C) the primary nntp server

You then need to figure out which things (it could be one or more of A,
B, C, AB, AC, BC, or ABC) are triggering your issue.
