What is a good definition of a foreign server then?

Is it just one that you've created in any backend as long as it is not
listed in .gnus as a secondary server?  Or in the select methods?

I've created an nnml server by editing server buffer and done nothing
else in any init or *.el files by hand.  That server remains
editable. So is it a "foreign" server?
