Mess with Trash

[Ivan Semin]

Hello!

A  couple  of offtopic words first. Thanks for all the recent fixes, I
am  looking  forward  for  the  new  version  to  try  all that stuff,
hopefully that will resolve all the gmail issues I am having too.

Now  my  new problem. Just reminding, I am syncing 8 gmail accounts to
local dovecot accounts (to avoid gmail banning me for bandwidth limit,
as we have up to 10 people working with each account simultaneously).
I have the following in config:

type = Gmail
remotehost = imap.gmail.com
remoteuser = something
remotepass = somethingelse
remoteport = 993
ssl = yes
maxconnections = 1
realdelete = no
nametrans = lambda folder: re.sub('.*Trash$', 'Trash', folder)
folderfilter = lambda foldername: foldername not in ['[Gmail]/All
Mail','[Gmail]/Sent Messages','[Gmail]/Starred']

The  nametrans  line  is to make Thunderbird (a mail client) delete to
the same folder as gmail.

Recently  I  faced  a  new  problem:  google  banned  me for exceeding
bandwidth  again.  I have a bandwidth graph and I see a lot of traffic
betweeen  the  server  and gmail, which offlineimap is generating. And
that  is  without  making  any  changes  to  the local imap. Again, no
changes on both ends, but a lot of traffic constantly flowing.

The log follows:

Establishing connection to imap.gmail.com:993.
Establishing connection to 127.0.0.1:143.

This  is  what  seems  to  be  generating traffic. Offlineimap deletes
messages and then copies back. Ideas?
