From gnus-server-prepare I deduce that (append gnus-opened-servers
gnus-server-alist) gives me a list of all servers. I want to iterate
over all servers that Gnus uses. Is this the correct approach?
Suppose I have a special server parameter, how do I get back that
value? Do I have to fish the server from gnus-opened-servers and/or
gnus-server-alist and then use assoc or assq manually, or is there a
ready-made function which accepts a server (or server name) and a
parameter and gives me the value?

gnus-server-to-method will do part of the job.

Hm. That's the same as the entry in gnus-server-alist or
gnus-opened-servers.
So to get the value of the server parameter, assoc and assq are my
friends.

I now found another approach:
gnus-valid-select-methods gives me a list of backends, and
gnus-servers-using-backend gives me all servers with that backend.
What to use?
