For these two items, you will want to use fetchmail or getmail (the
second is actively maintained, with a responsive author). Configure it
to deliver mail to ~/gnus-pop-email/, and then in your .gnus:

(setq gnus-select-method '(nnnil "")
      ;; Where mails are to be found
      mail-sources '((maildir :path "~/gnus-pop-email/")
                     (file))
      ;; Where and how to store mail for Gnus' consumption
      message-directory "/donnees/prive/Mail/"
      gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnml "ML"))
                    )
