Hi,
I have recently upgraded to emacs24 and use dovecot as a local IMAP server for 2 gmail accounts and one other.
Can anyone tell me why gnus doesn't connect to my dovecot anymore?
The Server buffer shows:
{nnimap:localhost} (error)
{nnml:} (opened)
So I press RETURN on the localhost line and get the error:
gnus-get-function: Required feature `nnimap' was not provided
The logging doesn't appear to output a log.
Here is part of my .gnus:
;; tell gnus not to fetch mail (dovecot will serve it up)
(setq mail-sources nil)
;; we are only using email
(setq gnus-nntp-server nil
gnus-read-active-file nil
gnus-save-newsrc-file nil
gnus-read-newsrc-file nil
gnus-check-new-newsgroups nil)
(setq nnimap-inhibit-logging nil)
(setq nnimap-record-commands t)
;;(nnimap-log-command "Starting logging")
;;(setq imap-log t)
;;(require 'gnus)
;;(load "imap")
;; FETCHING EMAIL ===============================
(setq gnus-select-method '(nnnil ""))
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
'((nnimap "gmailAccOne"
(nnimap-address "localhost")
(nnimap-stream network)
(nnimap-user mylesenglish)
(nnimap-authinfo-file "/home/myles/.authinfoME")
(nnimap-authenticator login)
(imap-shell-program "MAIL=maildir:/home/myles/Maildir/gmailAccOne /usr/lib/dovecot/imap"))
'(nnimap "gmailAccTwo"
(nnimap-address "localhost")
(nnimap-stream network)
(nnimap-user rh)
(nnimap-authinfo-file "/home/myles/.authinfoRH")
(nnimap-authenticator login)
(imap-shell-program "MAIL=maildir:/home/myles/Maildir/gmailAccTwo /usr/lib/dovecot/imap"))
))
Thanks,
Myles

Eval (require 'nnimap) and see if it works. Seems like a
load-path error.

Thanks I tried what you suggest: I deleted .newsrc* and pared down the .gnus to just one dovecot account and when I start gnus it is the (require 'nnimap) that actually triggers the error.
Without the (require 'nnimap), gnus starts without error but my imap accounts don't appear in *Server* and dovecot is not troubled with any authentication requests.
I am using Arch Linux packages but will try compiling emacs from source.

After deleting .newrc* the {nnimap:localhost} no longer shows.

My experiments have moved on a bit so I have started a new thread called
"using local dovecot nnimap, gnus Group shows wrong counts and mail"
(The original error message was something like "Required feature `nnimap' was not provided" but it was caused by (require 'nnimap).)
