Yes, there has been a bug fix for this in the current 'next' branch
already, so this will be fixed in the next release.

Also, there has been a bug fix for the IMAP<->IMAP case that could
potentially lead to missing out or duplicating messages and even data
loss (good you made the master readonly) and that I personally consider
the bug and its fix as critical.
(https://github.com/nicolas33/offlineimap/commit/3ce514e92ba7801d43bef1ee3911902975661cde)

I would therefore *strongly* recommend to use the current next branch,
rather than the -rc2 or even current master.

Download the tarball here:

I think we should be picking this commit into 'master' (or merge next
in) and release ASAP to prevent data loss.
