Bug report: Too many messages fetched at once with maxage

Fri Jul 22 07:22:53 BST 2011

Hi,

Not entirely sure about what might be going on with the message delete
or the value returned.  

The way maxage works is that it only looks at what is within that age on
both sides.  Any messages that are not within maxage will be ignored
completely.

Thus if I were you I would backup the local copy entirely, then delete
the messages from gmail, and then run offlineimap with maxage ...

-Mike
