That could be the problem for me. 

Gnus prompts for the gpg
passphrase but then does not use
the line within .authinfo.gpg . It
asks for the name and password
again and writes to .authinfo file 
despite the nnimap configuration [1]
having .authinfo.gpg as the file
to use.

[1] The nnimap configuration follows:

;; quote
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
	     '(nnimap "XXX"
		      (nnimap-address "XXX")
		      (nnimap-server-port XXX)
		      (nnimap-stream ssl)
		      (nnimap-authinfo-file "~/.authinfo.gpg")))
;; quote ends
