Currently the netrc.el code and everything that uses it only goes by
server+port. In other words, the four lines above look the same to the
netrc.el code so you just get the first one.
I usually set up /etc/hosts aliases for these situations, and that might
work for you until this is resolved.
I can modify netrc.el, but I'm not sure of the best way to do it. Note
that your nnimap method:

well, it's called " @gmail.com" but then that should not make a
difference to calling it just "gmail1" - yes?

Why is it you do not like it?

Well, before I used nnimap I used nnml as back end. With this back end
and the following snippet it worked like charm. Maybe we could try it
this way for nnimap too? What do others think about it?

Right, it was just for the example.

In your .gnus you can use LABELS for each account, and then in .authinfo
you use label instead of server address. Something like:
in .gnus:
,----
| (nnimap "gmail-account-1"
| (nnimap-server-port 143)
| (nnimap-address " imap.gmail.com")
| (nnimap-list-pattern ("INBOX" "mail/*"))
| (nnimap-authinfo-file "~/.emacs.d/.authinfo"))
`----
(You can add multiple accounts)

Hi Ted! Yes Gao's hint was the thing that solved it i.e. using some
"label" per gmail account did the trick.
Thank you Gao and Ted for helping with this issue! Maybe we should adapt
the manual to reflect this sort of configuration so others might not
stubble across it again - yes?

Please stop this nonsense and use a standard attribution *line*, not
an attribution novel.
