I have this:
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnimap "Maison"
(nnimap-address "my.server.net")
(nnimap-server-port 993)
(nnimap-stream ssl)
(nnimap-authenticator login)
(nnimap-authinfo-file "/home/jean/.authinfo"))))
Not everything is necessary, but the second line is; this is where you put
the internet name of the imap server. The name after "nnimap" on line 1 is
internal to your box.
