Because you didn't go through the prompts, I don't know the actual
backend that was used (see the second message below).

I made a .authinfo.gpg file to test this with this first line:

machine imap.gmail.com login x password y

And then did 
(auth-source-search :max 1 :host '("gmail" "imap.gmail.com") :port '("143" "993" "imap" "imaps") :create t)

I see in *Messages*:
auth-source-search: found 1 backends matching (:max 1 :host ("gmail" "imap.gmail.com") :port ("143" "993" "imap" "imaps") :create t)
auth-source-search: found 1 results (max 1/0) in [object auth-source-backend "~/.authinfo.gpg" netrc "~/.authinfo.gpg" t t t auth-source-netrc-create auth-source-netrc-search] matching (:max 1 :host ("gmail" "imap.gmail.com") :port ("143" "993" "imap" "imaps") :create t)
((:host "imap.gmail.com" :user "x" :secret (lambda (&rest --cl-rest--) (apply #[... "\bJ‡" [G19000] 1] ... --cl-rest--))))

So it worked properly for me.  Can you make sure you're loading the
right auth-source.el, too?  Do `M-x eval-buffer' in the open file rather
than relying on autoload and require.

Ted
