Hm ... "method" here meaning ... ?

I have

  (setq gnus-select-method             '(nntp "news.gmane.io"))
  (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nntp "nntp.aioe.org")
                                        (nnml "") ))
  (setq gnus-message-archive-group      "nnml:mail.sent")

and servers

     nnfolder: archive       (opened)
      nndraft:               (opened)
         nnml:               (opened)
         nntp: nntp.aioe.org (opened)
         nntp: news.gmane.io (opened)

So nnml I configured explicitely (as well as implicitly if
I understand you correctly) and the nntp as well, twice.

In nndraft it turns up I had 0 drafts and 19 posts in
"queue", I don't know if that means they were never sent or
what else it indicates?

In the nnfolder "archive" there is nothing and it isn't even
opened by default, so I guess it doesn't do anything?
But I can open it so it is operational, maybe operational
doing nothing but still ...
