So i (setq gnus-verbose 10)

I have in my .emacs.el:

,----
| (require 'auth-source)
| (require 'epa-file)
| (epa-file-enable)
| (setq gnus-verbose 10)
| (setq epa-file-cache-passphrase-for-symmetric-encryption t) ; VERY important
| (if (file-exists-p "~/.authinfo.gpg")
|     (setq auth-sources '((:source "~/.authinfo.gpg" :host t :protocol t)))
|     (setq auth-sources '((:source "~/.authinfo" :host t :protocol t))))
`----

I start gnus:
