What do you mean "just"?

In the Gnus manual there are 121 occurences of
"IMAP". This seems like a good start:
6.3.1 Connecting to an IMAP Server
----------------------------------
Connecting to an IMAP can be very easy.
Type ‘B’ in the group buffer, or (if your
primary interest is reading email), say
something like:
(setq gnus-select-method '(nnimap "imap.gmail.com"))
You’ll be prompted for a user name and
password. If you grow tired of that, then add
the following to your ‘~/.authinfo’ file:
machine imap.gmail.com login <username> password <password> port imap
That should basically be it for most users.
