Here's the section of the GNUS manual that caused my confusion, I
believe:

   If you want to use IMAP as a mail storage protocol, use an nnimap
entry in `gnus-secondary-select-methods'.  With this, Gnus will
manipulate mails stored on the IMAP server.  This is the kind of usage
explained in this section.
