Yep, it uses a custom log file thingie. I have a minimal branch that
converts OfflineImap to use the standard "logging" facility that python
offers. Is anyone interested in the code I have? I haven't tested with
anything but the TTYUI ui so far, not sure how blinkenlights would
fare. I attach the patch to this mail for people wanting to try it out
(and see if it flushes properly etc).
