Does anyone have a clue how such a change could fix your problem?
The only explanation that comes to mind is that there was still some
data stored somewhere in a file, so by renaming the server from
"imap.gmail.com" to "gmail" you made Gnus ignore those old settings,
regardless of where they were stored.

I don't understand: Why should it be changed? And what should it
say instead?
