Hi,

I've been using Gnus for some months just for mail reading. However, I
decided to start using it for news too. How can I do that? My
configuration had the following:

(setq gnus-select-method '(nnml ""))
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods nil)

now, I wish to add the news server. I though I just had to replace the
last lines by:

(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "<my_server>"))
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnml ""))

However, Gnus hangs while connecting to the news server with an error
(something like "Connection closed by news server"...).

I know this must be something stupid (like: I can't just replace the old
configuration by these 2 lines...) but can't find anything about this
topic...

Thanks.
