Hi,
I just started to learn Gnus. I managed to send news/mails and get
news, but I can't read my mail.
Here's the Gnus part of my .emacs (I don't use ~/.gnus.el because I
prefer putting all stuff in my .emacs):
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.gmane.org"))
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnml ""))
(setq read-mail-command 'gnus)
(setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
(setq smtpmail-default-smtp-server "fencepost.gnu.org")
(setq smtpmail-smtp-service 587)
(setq mail-sources '((pop :server "fencepost.gnu.org"
:user "xfq"
:password "secret"
:port 995)))
(setq gnus-novice-user t
gnus-expert-user nil)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
My .authinfo:
machine fencepost.gnu.org login xfq port 587 password secret
The two "secret"s above are my passwords.
My mail settings are:
POP3 server: fencepost.gnu.org
POP3 port: 995
POP3 settings: SSL/TLS
SMTP server: fencepost.gnu.org
SMTP port: 587
SMTP settings: STARTTLS
And I'm using Gnus v5.13 bundled with GNU Emacs 24.3.50 (r116149
larsi@gnus.org-20140125005216-vwndukqrdbq2xv4u) on GNU/Linux.
After executing `M-x gnus', I pressed `A A' to see the complete group
list. I only saw gmane.* and gwene.* groups, and there's no nnml*
groups. There wasn't any error/warning message.
I have skimmed the Gnus manual and searched the web, but didn't get
anything that looked promising. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

BTW, there's a `{nnml:} (opened)' entry in the *Server* buffer, but
I saw nothing after entering it by RET. (In fact, I have some unread mails.)

Does that help?

It _is_ in my init file. I tried `M-x gnus' and `M-x
menu-bar-read-mail' but neither worked.

Finally, I solved this problem by adding ":authentication 'apop" to
`mail-sources', although I don't know what "apop" means...

In my .emacs I have something like:
(gnus-secondary-select-methods (quote ((nnimap "account1"
(nnimap-address "host1") (nnimap-list-pattern ("INBOX" "*"))))))
created with:
> M-x customize-variable
> gnus-secondary-select-methods
If the Messages log shows a successful login maybe you should „Make a
foreign group“ ("G m" in the Groups buffer).
