Two accounts, one maildir.

According to the Maildir specification (if i understand it correctly),
mails have unique identifiers, and multiple accounts can put the
messages in the same ~/Maildir folder. Which is what i've tried and
failed.

I configured the two remote repositories, and one local repository
beeing ~/Maildir. The first run of each of the two accounts fetched
the messages nicely, messages landing in ~/Maildir/cur/ for both
accounts. Syncing the accounts again after that with offlineimap, it
got confused about the messages of the other account in the directory
structure and started to delete messages on both accounts. I'm
guessing this isn't supported?
