Hi,

there must be a mistake somewhere.

I am getting the emails of "posteo"

but I don´t get the emails of "gmail"

And if connecting to gnus it asks me of the email address and the 
password of gmail
but not of the email address and password of posteo:

IMAP user at gmail (gfp): [Reverting buffer ´emacs´]
IMAP password for francis.pr@gmail.com

I understand it like this that it connects to the IMAP of Gmail and not 
of posteo. But then, why it takes the emails of posteo and not of gmail?

Warning: Opening nnimap server on gmail...failed: NO 
(AUTHENTICATIONFAILED) Invalid credentials (Failure); Server 
nnimap+gmail previously determined to be down; not retrying

------------------------------------------------------------------
here are my gnus.el settings:

;;gnus for getting emails
(setq gnus-select-method '(nnnil nil))
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
       '((nnimap "posteo"
                 (nnimap-address "posteo.de")
                 (nnimap-server-port "imaps")
                 (nnimap-stream ssl)
                 (nnir-search-engine imap)
                 (nnmail-expiry-target "nnimap+posteo:[posteo]/Papierkorb")
                 (nnmail-expiry-wait 'immediate))
         (nnimap "gmail"
                 (nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")
                 (nnimap-server-port "imaps")
                 (nnimap-stream ssl)
                 (nnir-search-engine imap)
                 (nnmail-expiry-target "nnimap+gmail:[Gmail]/Trash")
                 (nnmail-expiry-wait 'immediate))))

;; Reply to mails with matching email address
(setq gnus-posting-styles
       '((".*" ; Matches all groups of messages
          (address "gottfried <gottfried@posteo.de>"))
         ("gmail" ; Matches Gnus group called "gmail"
          (address "Francis <francis.pr@gmail.com>")
          ("X-Message-SMTP-Method" "smtp Posteo-posteo.de 465 
gottfried@posteo.de"))))

;; alle Gruppen immer sehen
(setq gnus-permanently-visible-groups ".*")

;; nice overview of all groups with unread/total count
(setq gnus-group-line-format "%5M %5y/%-8t • %c\n")

;;nice colours for spot groups with new emails
  '((gnus-group-mail-1-empty ((t (:foreground "SlateGray3"))))
  '(gnus-group-mail-3 ((t (:foreground "spring green"))))
  '(gnus-group-mail-3-empty ((t (:foreground "SlateGray3"))))
  '(gnus-group-news-3 ((t (:foreground "spring green"))))
  '(gnus-group-news-3-empty ((t (:foreground "SlateGray3"))))
  '(gnus-group-news-low ((t (:foreground "spring green")))))

thanks for help
