The short form '(nntp "news.example.com") works fine without
explicitly specifying nntp-address and nntp-port-number, but you will
wind up with longer group names
(nntp+news.example.com:gnu.emacs.gnus). I don't know off hand if you
can have servers with different backends but the same name, but in
that case you could have a setup like
(setq gnus-select-method '(nnnil "")
gnus-secondary-select-methods
'((nnml "")
(nntp "" (nntp-address "news.example.com"))))
to be able to refer to both nnml:mail.spam and nntp:gnu.emacs.gnus. I
just suck it up and use the long name; tab-completion is easy.
