How can I check my @gmail.com email with gnus

[xtd8865@gmail.com (.Martin.)]

I seem to get a vague idea how to use gnus for newsgroups. It still
feels VERY clumsy, slow and not the way I like it, but I guess it's the
question of configuring it properly and learning key shortcuts.

I know how to send an email from my gmail account. The problem is how
I can check for new emails. In other words, how would I display my gmail 'inbox'?

This is part of my .emacs:

(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.virginmedia.com"))
(setq gnus-secondary-select-method '(nnimap "gmail"
                                            (nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")
                                            (nnimap-server-port 993)
                                            (nnimap-stream ssl)))


(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
      smtpmail-starttls-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com" 587 nil nil))
      smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com" 587 "myemail@gmail.com" nil))
      smtpmail-default-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
      smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
      smtpmail-smtp-service 587
 



and my .gnus

(setq gnus-posting-styles
        '((".*"
;;              (address "email@gomain.com")
        (organization "abc")
        (signature-file "~/.gnus-sig")
        ))
)

;; my mail headers - if not using posting styles
(setq user-full-name ".Martin.")
(setq user-mail-address "myemail@gmail.com")

(setq   gnus-check-new-newsgroups nil
        gnus-read-active-file nil
        gnus-nov-is-evil nil)


;; don't ask how many email to dowload
(setq gnus-large-newsgroup 'nil)
