I've got the following server config... (nnimap "some.host.name" (nnimap-address "10.x.y.z") (nnimap-server-port imap) (nnimap-stream network)) ...but it seems that these configured things are never used - for instance, if I change nnimap-address to be "localhost", I still see Gnus saying in the echo area that it's making a TLS connection to some.host.name instead. I can run stunnel on my laptop in order to pretend that I've got SSL access to Exchange, and it works, but it'd be nice not to have to do this.
