If you're going to use [Gmail]/Drafts as the example folder, shouldn't  
you just use mail.google.com as your example?  Google themselves use username@gmail.com 
  as an example[1], so that should be safe. So:

..............................
[imap]
     folder = "[Gmail]/Drafts"
     host = imaps://imap.gmail.com
     port = 993
     user = username
     pass = password
..............................

And I also assume that someone has tried this with Gmail and it doesn't mangle the Drafts. I'd also move the sslverify option into the tunneling example, as it's more likely to be needed there.
