Sorry for sending a couple of emails in a row, but it seems that this is actually the behavior that I'm seeing:
$ telnet imap.gmail.com 993 Trying 2607:f8b0:4001:c08::6c... Connected to gmail-imap.l.google.com. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host. So, unlike I said in the previous email, telnet imap.gmail.com 993 does not seem to be working either. Running telnet imap.gmail.com imap still just seems to hang and never gets to a point where a foreign host can close the connection.
