IMAP problems

I'm trying to set up IMAP for the first time on 5.10.6.  

Here's a snippet from my .gnus:

,----
| (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
|         '(nnimap "name.of.server"
|                 (nnimap-server-port 993)
|                 (nnimap-address "name.of.server")
|                 (nnimap-list-pattern '("mbox" "INBOX" "mail/*"))
|                 (nnimap-stream ssl)))
`----

I'm pretty sure I have the correct values for server port, address, and
stream; I'm guessing on list-pattern.  

Here's part of the log from my *Messages* buffer upon a fresh start of
Emacs NT 21.3.1:

At that point, I have a blank Emacs window with a header that indicates
it is running Gnus but no appropriate menu items.  

If I comment out the .gnus snippet shown at the start, I can read my
normal mail spool (POP3 on localhost, and all the newsgroups work.

Any tips on what I might need to adjust to get IMAP to work, too?

Oh, I do have a .authinfo file set up that works for the newsgroups but
apparently not for this IMAP configuration, as Gnus did ask me to enter
my name.of.server login name and password before it failed.

Thanks,

Bill

PS: This is not for a gmail IMAP account.
