I've noticed --insecure has been added in nnimap.el at some point in time
as a parameter that gnutls-cli is called with.

After much experimentation with ports settings etc. at work I came to the
conclusion that port 993 must be blocked partially somehow, even though the
admin has repeatedly assured me, that it's unblocked. So I discussed with
him again today, he went back, did some `defaults overrulling' or what have
you, as he called it, and it does work now, indeed.

So I can connect with No Gnus at work. Thanks a lot for your help.
