IMAP problems

[Frank Schmitt <usereplyto@Frank-Schmitt.net>]

Hello

I've problems connecting to an IMAP server with Gnus. It seems
something goes wrong when authenticating with the server, but what?

Here's what I have in my .gnus:

(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods 
                         '(nnimap "mail1"
                                  (nnimap-address "mail1.kens.com")))

When Gnus starts, the connection to the server isn't established, if I
go to server buffer status is set to "denied".

Here's what *imap-log* says

Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consider
that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough
space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize
this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read.
