I just added this entry to my gnus-secondary-select-methods: (nnimap "local" (nnimap-address "localhost") (nnimap-authinfo-file "~/.imap-authinfo") (nnimap-stream ssl)) If you're not seeing your maildirs in gnus, maybe it's because you're not subscribed to them? You can list unsubscribed groups with "A A" in the Group buffer, or enter the server buffer with ^ and hit RET on your local IMAP server to see the groups list there.
