I'm not sure if nnimap can use the name as the server host -- I always
thought one had to specify the host name in an extra nnimap-address
parameter.

Also, I think the result of `G e' should be "nnimap:foo" (with the
quotes but without any parens!) rather than (nnimap "foo"
(nnimap-address "blarfl")) (with parens and all).

Recent versions of nnimap should do this automatically -- if you find
a way to subscribe a group where this doesn't work, tell Simon about
it.  But maybe the "nnimap:foo" syntax is only used for secondary
servers rather than for foreign servers?  Hm.  Simon?
