FWIW nnimap was rewritten a couple of years back, and on an IMAP server
that supports QRESYNC (eg. dovecot), it is quite fast these days.

I also think, but I don't know for sure, that if you start up gnus
without any config, it will ask for a server.

And if you give nnimap as the method, and if you give the DNS name of
the server running the IMAP server, and if that server is running on
port 143, then things should more or less work.  All of the folders on
the IMAP server will appear as nnimap groups.

But I could be wrong...:-)
