Hi,

my method accessing imap mail folders (Starting from the **Group**
buffer, no SSL connection):

  gnus-group-enter-server-mode  <menu-bar> <Gnus> <Enter server buffer>, ^
    Command: Jump to the server buffer.

  gnus-server-add-server        <menu-bar> <Server> <Add...>, a
    Command: (not documented)

  gnus-server-read-server       <menu-bar> <Server> <Browse>, RET
    Command: Browse a server.

Subscribe to the folders like you do with news groups.

Cheers

Martin
