I'm not sure that gnus-secondary-select-methods actually works, but Gnus
in Emacs 23 (or earlier) doesn't contact to the server even if I have
the above gnus-secondary-select-methods setting.

My understanding is that levels are per-group and not per-server, and
all groups defined in ~/.newsrc.eld have level 3.  So I'm wondering
which group Gnus is trying to open.
