Yes, I am. But I keep logs of what offlineimap does, and have seen the problem even though offlineimap didn't claim to be making changes. Still, there is a possibility that it is offlineimap's fault.

I use a slightly modified version of offlineimap to handle this. > (I use offlineimap to sync between a local dovecot and a remote dovecot > and courier.) I have dovecot at both ends. Dan
