Subject: Switching to nnimap

Hi,
I'm trying to switching to nnimap with the latest gnus from CVS and
need help for a few things.
Here's my nnimap entries in gnus-secondary-select-methods
,----
| (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
| '(nnimap "imapserver"
| (nnimap-address "imapserver.eng.sun.com")
| (nnimap-list-pattern '("INBOX" ("Mail/nnimap/" . "*")))
| (nnimap-username tonyl)
| ))
|
| (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
| '(nnimap ""
| (nnimap-address "imapserver.eng.sun.com")
| (nnimap-list-pattern '("INBOX" ("Mail/nnimap/" . "*")))
| (nnimap-username tonyl)
| ))
`----
* they're both actually pointing to the same imap server, but I got
"server denied" for the 2nd entry (nnimap "" ...), so I have to
use the first one which resulting long group names
"nnimap+imapserver:Mail/nnimap/..." instead of
"nnimap:Mail/nnimap/.." that I like.
* nnimap-list-pattern in the above entries doesn't seem to be used,
I have to set a global one outside select-method to make nnimap
use it.
* nnimap-username is not used regardless it's being set inside the
select-method or globally.
Are they the way supposed to work and there's something I missed?
TIA.
