Bugreport: maxage deleting old email from destination

According to the original offlineimap.conf maxage is set per account,
not per repository. That's what I do - set it in [Account], so it
should affect both local and remote.

Exactly! That confuses me too.

I didn't notice that during the test, but yes, that's even worse.

It copies 8 messages to gmail, then deletes 8 messages from local.
Then copies 18 from local to gmail. 18+8=26, so it seems to copy those
ghost messages it just copied from gmail to local.
