 Ted> ...Assuming your method is called "gmail1"?
well, it's called "<gmail_1>@gmail.com" but then that should not make a
difference to calling it just "gmail1" -  yes?

Why is it you do not like it?


 Ted> Any opinions?
Well, before I used nnimap I used nnml as back end. With this back end
and the following snippet it worked like charm. Maybe we could try it
this way for nnimap too? What do others think about it?

(add-to-list 'mail-sources `(imap :server    ,priv-imap-gmail-mail-server
                                  :user      ,priv-gmail1-mail-user
                                  :password  ,priv-imap-gmail1-password
                                  :port 993
                                  :stream ssl
                                  :authentication login
                            )
)
