Olivier (and maybe others),
Are you synchronizing IMAP to IMAP or are you synchronizing IMAP to
MAILDIR and then serving the local MAILDIR as IMAP dovecot ?
I'm synching IMAP to MAILDIR and experience some oddities, but not sure
if they can be attributed to offlineimap or dovecot or gnus or any
combination...
Please, mail your experiences
Best,
