You got the same result I did for yahoo.  inbound.att.net didn't  
respond at all.  imap.gmail.com gives a lengthy response, but doesn't  
respond to "0001 CAPABILITY" and I can't tell what they are expecting.   
It looks like they are talking a different language, which doesn't  
surprise me much.

Sorry I wasn't actually able to provide any useful information.
