> how to use gnus to gets mails in gmail
Gnus's mail-sources doesn't support SSL with 'pop[1], which
is the only way to interact with Gmail besides HTTPS, AFAIK
(pop.gmail.com:995).
You should probably configure a retriever like getmail or
fetchmail to download your messages to a local spool and then
configure Gnus from there. If you use 'file for your
mail-sources, you could call your retriever with :prescript.
Also, since you're using CVS Emacs, I would migrate to the
packaged, modern Gnus 5.11 instead of what you're using:
User-Agent: Gnus/5.09 (Gnus v5.9.0) Emacs/21.3.50
I have no idea if my mail source comments apply to 5.9.
Footnotes:
