IPV6 address for gmail does not work

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Recently, I can't receive my gmails through office outlook, which worked quite 
well before. And it turns out to be the problem of the ipv6 address of the pop 
server of gmail. The ipv6 addresses for gmail in my hosts are as follows:

2607:f8b0:400e:c00::6d pop.gmail.com #gmail-pop.l.google.com
2607:f8b0:400e:c00::6d smtp.gmail.com #gmail-smtp-msa.l.google.com

Pinging this address gives no feedback. So anybody else has the same issue? 
Does the mail server address change? Or there is something wrong with my own 
network? Thanks very much!

The Hong Kong address works for me. Thanks very much!

By the way, how do you find the available ipv6 addresses for certain services 
such as gmail, facebook, youtube etc?
