hi, You can try to enable imap log by (setq imap-log t).
Besides, can you check your message buffer that if gmail is really
connected already. If so, then you can do S-s ,input "nnimap+gmail:" plus
TAB, then you will get a list of available mail groups :) hope this works
for you

Hello Mario,
I suspect that for now, you only want to read your mail through
gmail. If that is the case, you have to change the line that reads
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
for this one:
(setq gnus-select-method
since gmail would be your primary source of "news". If you wanted to add
more accounts later (mail, news, rss,...) you would have to specify each
one of them with the "add-to-list" formula, since they would be
secondary sources of news.
Regards,
Alberto

Hi, Mario.
I think "unable to open server nntp+news go offline" because nntp+news is the default method of gnus. Check out your variable gnus-select-method. If you haven't subscribed newsgroup and want gnus to get mail as default. You can try
(setq gnus-select-method '(nnml ""))
I use the nnml as the backend. This is part of my config, hope useful.
(setq gnus-select-method '(nnml ""))
(setq mail-sources '((imap :server "imap.gmail.com"
:port 993
:user "xxx@gmail.com"
:password "secret"
:authentication 'login
:stream ssl
:fetchflag "\\Seen")
(imap :server "imap.gmail.com"
:port 993
:user "yyy@gmail.com"
:password "secret"
:authentication 'login
:stream ssl
:fetchflag "\\Seen")))
And, this is the full configuration.

I followed this advice.
I put my login info only into the .gnus.el (username and password changed)
(setq gnus-select-method '(nnml ""))
(setq mail-sources '((imap :server "imap.gmail.com"
:port 993
:user "myusername@gmail.com"
:password "secret"
:authentication 'login
:stream ssl)))
The above was the only thing in the .gnus.el. I then started a fresh
Emacs and then started Gnus.
Here is the *messages* buffer directly after logging into GNUS (minus
the messages from starting Emacs:
Loading gnus...done
Loading gnus-start...done
Loading gnus-agent...done
Loading bbdb-gnus...done
Reading c:/Users/nrp0219342/Home/.newsrc.eld...
Ignoring disappeared server `nnimap:gmail'
Reading active file via nnml...
nnml: Reading incoming mail from imap...
Loading cl-macs...done
Loading byte-opt...done
Loading imap...done
imap: Connecting to imap.gmail.com...
imap: Opening SSL connection with `openssl s_client -quiet -ssl3 -connect %s:%p'...done
Waiting for response from imap.gmail.com...done
imap: Plaintext authentication...
Loading utf7...done
nnml: Reading incoming mail (no new mail)...done
Reading active file via nnml...done
Generating the cache active file...done
No new newsgroups
Checking new news...
Opening nnml server on -ephemeral...done
Checking new news...done
What is fishy is the "Ignoring disappeared server" line.
After Gnus is started, I do not see an imap group and the servers buffer
does not have an imap server anywhere. My imap email account has unread
messages in it.
Suggestions?
Thanks.

The emacs wiki has a nice write-up that solved it for me.
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GnusGmail
Here is my .gnus.el entry now:
(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "freenews.netfront.net"))
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
'(nnimap "gmail"
(nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")
(nnimap-server-port 993)
(nnimap-stream ssl)))
I used the .authinfo file for username/password. This was nicely laid
out in the wiki as well.
The last thing was the the Sent Mail and other folders weren't visible
until the default setting for gnus-ignored-newsgroups was modified, as
the wiki said as well.
(setq gnus-ignored-newsgroups "^to\\.\\|^[0-9. ]+\\(\\|$\\)\\|^[\"]\"[#'()]")
