Yes, I have that on my workstation. My experience is not the best and on my laptop, which is now my primary machine I did not use that setup. There are quite some places where gnus expects the primary select method to be nntp. E.g. in drafts I had some problems and it needed tweeking But since you apparently will do it I am quite optimistic that these issues will be resolved soon :-) Greetings Christoph BTW: IMAP is great and worth the migration. Thanks Simon for the nnimap backend
