> I've got some general remarks regarding nnimap:

If I may pile on, I'd like to add another issue: nnimap seems to
almost arbitrarily disconnect, such that every time I check mail it
either needs to reconnect, and sometimes asks me for my password
again, and sometimes doesn't. Perhaps there are some timeout variables
that control this behavior.

On top of that, nnimap often doesn't notice new mail unless I M-g on a
particular group, as opposed to a '1-g' or '2-g' to check groups by
level. I've been having this problem for several years now. Each time
I update to a later Gnus, I hope for a solution. Maybe the problem is
with the IMAP servers.
