nnimap doesn't work as a secondary-select-method

[Timothy Culver <culver@cs.unc.edu>]

Hi all,

I can't get nnimap to work as a gnus-secondary-select-methods entry.
It works as a gnus-select-method.  Specifically, this gives an error:

(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "csnews.cs.unc.edu"))
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods 
      '((nnimap "imap.doppke.com"
		(nnimap-list-pattern ("*")))))

This sort of works, but it searches the imap server for all of my
regular newsgroups:

(setq gnus-select-method '(nnimap "imap.doppke.com"
				  (nnimap-list-pattern ("*"))))
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods 
	'((nntp "csnews.cs.unc.edu")))

And this works fine for nntp:

(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "csnews.cs.unc.edu"))
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods nil)

The *imap-log* and *nnimap-debug* buffers look OK.

Here's the error (from *Message-Log*):

Reading active file from csnews.cs.unc.edu via nntp...

Is it possible that I need to set an nnimap-split-rule?  I don't
really want nnimap to do splitting, since it's done by procmail during 
delivery, but I suppose I could have it split an always-empty box or
something if that would make it happy.

Thanks,
Tim Culver
