The first thing to realize is that the name of the nnimap server can be
independent of the hostname, and it is what is used to look up
login+password in authinfo.
So you can define your two accounts like this:
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnimap "one-account"
(nnimap-address "mailserver"))
(nnimap "other-account"
(nnimap-address "mailserver"))))
and then in your .authinfo.gpg, you'll have:
machine one-account login firstlogin password firstpassword
machine other-account login secondlogin password secondpassword
This should give you nnimap+one-account and nnimap+other-account in
Gnus, accessing the two accounts on the same server.
(Exact syntax untested.)
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Adam
