Then, I do "L" and I can see INBOX in the susbribed groups list. 0:INBOX When I type "g" or "M-g" on INBOX, gnus tells me that there are no news. When I use C-u RET on INBOX, gnus tells me that it cannot enter the Group. > It's supposed to be simple. It looks as if you did everything right. > I don't know what might be wrong.

BTW, what was problematic in nnimap as a primary method? Thanks. -- Jérôme MARANT
