This should be changed to `("nnatom" none address)', and the docstring
should probably be changed to clarify this too.

Honestly though, I don't understand why this is a user option in the
first place, it only seems useful if you're implementing a new backend
(in which case, you're probably using `gnus-declare-backend', which
modifies `gnus-valid-select-methods' without checking the value anyway).
