remote Maildir and IMAP

[jsbien@mimuw.edu.pl (Janusz S. Bień)]

Hi!

I need to read my mail with IMAP on a computer, where the mail is kept
in Maildir format. For the time being I am using fetchmail (the
"novice" configuration worked immediately) but I am curious whether it
is possible to read the mail directly with gnus. I am afraid I am the
only user of gnus on this computer, so I can't rely on local help
:-(. I also didn't succeed to find a relevant advice with Google.

In .gnus.el I tried several values of `nnimap-list pattern', including
the default, "~/Mail/*" and the one listed below.

	(nnimap "duch"
		(nnimap-address "duch.mimuw.edu.pl")
		(nnimap-list-pattern ( "~/Mail/Maildir/*" ))
		(nnimap-stream starttls)
		(nnimap-authinfo-file "nnimap-authinfo-file")
		)

Gnus connects correctly, but no mail is available.

I am looking forward to your advice.

Best regards

Janusz
