Yeah, I use the same setup, but TLS only for synching with offlineimap.

Set up your select methods like this.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
             '(nnimap "Uni"
                      (nnimap-address "localhost")
                      (nnimap-stream network)
                      (nnimap-authenticator login)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

See (info "(gnus)IMAP") for the description.

Bye,
Tassilo
