If your news server is defined as primary, the group "gnu.emacs.gnus"
will have a fully qualified name of "gnus.emacs.gnus", so the regexp
"^nntp.*" does not match it.

To avoid this confusion, I now use (nnnil "") as primary select
method, so that all groups have a fully qualified name easier to
match, such as "nntp:gnu.emacs.gnus" or "nnimap:mail/work".

Here is my setup:

(setq 

 ;;
 ;; The primary method is nothing. This makes all other methods
 ;; secondary ones, thus allows us to only use fully qualified
 ;; group names
 ;;
 gnus-select-method '(nnnil "")


 ;;
 ;; Methods to get mail and news
 ;;
 gnus-secondary-select-methods 
 '(
   ;; Mail
   (nnimap ""
	   (nnimap-address "mail-veri"))

   ;; News
   (nntp "" (nntp-address "news"))
   )
 )
