I've been using nnimap over a local port that's ssh-forwarded to an
IMAP server, and this is what the relevant section of my .gnus file
looks like:

    (require 'nnimap)
    (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
              (cons 
               '(nnmbox "")
               gnus-secondary-select-methods))
    (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
              (cons 
               '(nnimap 
                 "sage"
                   (nnimap-address "127.0.0.1")
                   (nnimap-server-port 1240)
                 )
               gnus-secondary-select-methods))
