Hi,
With the (great) help of Tassilo Horn, I was able to set up gnus to read email with an IMAP account (see http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2011-10/msg00300.html). At the moment, I try to set it up to *send* email, but I receive "Process smtpmail not running".
Here is my setup (I'm working on Mac OS X 10.7.2 with Emacs 24.0.91 (9.0)), all is contained in ~/.gnus.el:
;; basics
(gnus-demon-add-handler 'gnus-demon-scan-news 1 t); check every min
(setq gnus-fetch-old-headers t); show previous messages in a thread
(setq gnus-select-method '(nnnil)); no news (only email)
(setq user-mail-address "my.name@mail.uni.edu"); set default email address
(setq user-full-name "My Name"); set default user name
(setq gnus-interactive-exit nil); don't ask when closing
;; automatic linebreaking
(defun my-message-mode-setup ()
(setq fill-column 80)
(turn-on-auto-fill))
(add-hook 'message-mode-hook 'my-message-mode-setup)
;; setup IMAP accounts
;; IMAP for google mail has been enabled
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
'((nnimap "my.name@mail.uni.edu"; primary email account
(nnimap-address "mail.uni.edu"); mail server address
)
(nnimap "my.name@googlemail.com"; secondary email account
(nnimap-address "imap.googlemail.com"); mail server address
)
)
)
In ~/.authinfo, I specified the login details as follows:
machine imap.googlemail.com login my.name@googlemail.com port imaps password ....
machine mail.uni.edu login mylogin port imaps password ....
Here are the details I specified in Mac Mail (which works):
1) my.name@mail.uni.edu (that's an MS Exchange Server 2010):
Internal Server, External Server, Outgoing Mail server: mail.uni.edu
2) my.name@googlemail.com (a standard gmail account, set up to work with IMAP):
Incoming Mail Server: imap.googlemail.com
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): smtp.googlemail.com
When I wanted to send a new message (from either my.name@mail.uni.edu or my.name@googlemail.com), I was first asked to choose between "mail client", "transport", and "smtp". I chose the latter but then directly obtained the "Process smtpmail not running" message.
Cheers,
Marius
I also set up the debugging for IMAP:
(setq imap-log t)
The log file contained quite a lot of output of the form:
19:44:50 (inhibited)
19:44:50 2 LIST "" "*"
19:44:52 (inhibited)
19:44:53 4 LIST "" "*"

Thanks for the compliments. :-)

For sending mail, you need to configure Gnus to use some SMTP server
(unless you have some working sendmail running) like this:
(setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
message-send-mail-function 'message-smtpmail-send-it
smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com")
> In ~/.authinfo, I specified the login details as follows:

> machine mail.uni.edu login mylogin port imaps password ....
You probably need to add
machine smtp.gmail.com login my.name@googlemail.com port imaps password ....
as well.
I'm not sure if gmail's smtp allows relaying, i.e., sending mail when
you use your "uni.edu" mail address in the From header. If it doesn't,
try if your university's smtp allows it. If not, you need to add some
customization for selecting the right server dynamically when sending
mail. I think, that's documented somewhere on EmacsWiki.

Dear Tassilo,
many thanks for helping :-)
I added the line to .authinfo and the three lines to .gnus.el. I then tried to send emails from both my accounts and obtained (in both cases):
"Sending failed: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. l18sm13222866fab.9"
I then tried it with...
(setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
message-send-mail-function 'message-smtpmail-send-it
smtpmail-smtp-server "mail.uni.edu")
... but obtained again "Process smtpmail not running".
Cheers,
Marius

Okay, I finally figured something out:
1) I needed STARTTLS. This I could not find for Mac OS X, but it's contained in gnutls. I wanted to install the latest version, but that failed due to some missing file libnette... . I then used macports to install gnutls -- not a very new version, but it did the job.
2) .gnus.el [so that was correct]:
(setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
message-send-mail-function 'message-smtpmail-send-it
smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com")
3) When trying to send an email from my gmail account to my other account, I was asked for the user name and password. Apparently the info in .authinfo was not correct. Indeed, I had the full gmail address instead of just the login. So the correct version is (with the usual replacements):
machine mail.uni.edu login mylogin port imaps password ...
machine imap.googlemail.com login my.name port imaps password ...
machine smtp.gmail.com login my.name port smtp password ...
=> Note the different port for smtp.gmail.com.
4) I also tried sending emails from my other (non-gmail) account and it worked.
Remaining questions I have (since I'm not fully understanding what I am doing) are:
1) Are there any disadvantages in using smtp.gmail.com for sending emails from my non-gmail account?
As far as I understood, gmail then takes care of saving sent mails [which would actually be good since the other account may change every once in a while]
2) How could I set up a second smtp server? Can I just add a line like
smtpmail-smtp-server "mail.uni.edu" under 2) ?
3) What's the best way to get notified of new mail? I found:
3.1) gnus-notify.el
3.2) GnusBiff (see http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GnusBiff) set up via growl (see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1053245/new-mail-notifications-in-gnus-for-emacs)
Is there also a way to get notified via a sound?
Cheers,
Marius

No, not really.

If you want sent mails you've sent with your univerity's address to show
up there in sent-mail or somewhere else, have a look at the `gcc-self'
group parameter. You can set it either to some fixed group (like
nnimap+Uni:sent-mail), but there's more flexibility. For example, all
my sent mails go into the groups where I replied from or started writing
in. So my mail conversations look exactly like newsgroup threads
(except for mailing lists, where the sent mails go into a the
corresponding account's sent-mail folder).
> 2) How could I set up a second smtp server? Can I just add a line like

No, that would override the former.
You can do so using some the external MSMTP program
(http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GnusMSMTP) or directly in Gnus using a
small bit of elisp foo. For example, that's what I've used some nix
before.

I simply switch to *Group* from time to time. :-)
