I can scan any group from that server manually, with M-g.
My OP was wrong, by the way: none of the groups get scanned. Somehow I
convinced myself that INBOX was being scanned but it wasn't.
So the question is more straightforward: why is my Exchange server being
ignored completely when I ask to fetch new news? It's in the list of
servers (and verified looking at the server buffer) and is included in
the gnus-secondary-select-methods list.

Very helpful in that it showed that the Exchange server is never
scanned.
Thanks again,
