May we see the nnimap portion of your Gnus configuration?  Also, which
way are you using nnimap (as a mail source, or as primary/secondry
select method)?  I use 2 nnimap servers as secondary select method on
three Debian boxen in Emacs 24.2.1, and the marks in each system's Gnus
nnimap groups seem to match up with each other and their respective IMAP
servers.

Best,
WGG
