Sounds likely.

I've verified that putting a single NUL character into any mail and then
trying to move it to Gmail will make Gmail hang up the connection.

So the Gmail IMAP servers just aren't compliant -- the IMAP RFC says
that all IMAP servers should be able to take binary data after APPEND, I
seem to recall.

The question is -- what should nnimap do about that?  Introduce a
"quirks mode" for Gmail that just strips all NUL characters?
