To be fair, in my case a significant chunk of the most useful
troubleshooting stuff lies squarely in the domain of "How do you
troubleshoot protocol X", regardless of which software is used to implement
that protocol.

A trivial example: I suspect most of us have, at one time or another, used
the "telnet smtphost 25" facility to see if the SMTP server is alive (and
that we haven't got firewalls/filters/whatever blocking us)...

In my case, the issue I was trying to address was "how do I speak IMAPS on
port 993" manually, so I can blame Outlook...
