Re: Trouble setting up Gnus + OfflineIMAP + dovecot

[<britt@uwaterloo.ca>]

I use dovecot and mbsync (isync) and it basically works. My gnus has the following:
Perhaps you might want to use imap and the network stream?

(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
      '((nnimap "email"
                (nnimap-address "localhost")
                (nnimap-stream network)
                (nnimap-authenticator login)
                (nnimap-inbox "INBOX")
                (nnimap-unsplittable-articles (%Deleted))
                (nnimap-split-methods default)
                (nnir-search-engine imap))
        (nntp "news.gwene.org"
              )
        (nntp "news.gmane.org"
              )
        )
      )
