Did you remove all your "old" nnimap groups (with C-k) and
resubscribed to them on the new server?

All groups carry information about the gnus server (typically
"nnimap:foo") that it belong too, if you removed that server from
`gnus-secondary-select-method' Gnus can't know what server to use for
that group and simply put "*" on the group.

Kill your old groups, remove the nnimap server, stop gnus, add the new
server, start gnus and subscribe to your groups again.  Does it work?
