Some other nice things:
• Offlineimap uses maildir format, used by some IMAP servers like Dovecot. So if Google ever goes evil and locks you out, you can just use your own server instead.
• Theoretically you can use Offlineimap to reproduce exactly all your mail and folders/labels onto another IMAP server. This would be pretty useful for migration, but I've never actually tried it.
- spooneybarger 17y agomaildir works very well with mutt as well and because of the 2 way sync nature of offlineimap, you can work offline with all of your mail ( something that the gmail offline doesn't allow me, it only makes some available. ). yes, i am a big offlineimap fan.
