Applied, thanks.
Could you please check if the manual needs to be changed as well?
Bye, Reiner.

I had a short look at it, and I think it's fine. Before my change the
docs should have mentioned that the number a user specifies for
nnimap-server-port must `equal' the port value in ~/.authinfo, but now
that's not needed anymore for standard ports.
Bye,
Tassilo
