Hi I have this in my .gnus.el:

(setq user-mail-address "xxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com")
(setq user-full-name "xxxxxxxxxx")
(load-library "smtpmail")
(load-library "nnimap")
(load-library "starttls")
(setq gnus-select-method '(nnimap "imap.gmail.com"
(nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")
(nnimap-server-port 993)
(nnimap-list-pattern ("INBOX" "mail/*"))
(nnimap-authinfo-file "~/.imap-authinfo")
(nnimap-stream ssl)))

(setq smtpmail-starttls-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com" 587 nil nil))
smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
smtpmail-default-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
smtpmail-smtp-service 587
smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com"
587
"xxxxxxxx@gmail.com"
nil)))

Login is ok, I see in the status bar:
-:**-F1 Gnus: *Group* {nnimap:imap.gmail.com} All L1 (Group
Plugged)--

However: all that shows up is:
9: nndoc+gnus-help:gnus-help
