OK, --info is good. I see what's going on. I need to pass both
translated foldername and untranslated foldername to -f to make it sync.
This raises the question how the folderfilter should work. If I do -f
INBOX, should it sync only from INBOX (which is the remote name) to the
local copy or bidirectional? I find this very confusing. I'd opt for:
-) Folders are always synced both ways.
-) -f option can be used with either name
Also, the usage of "translated" is completely ambiguous now.
Offlineimap translates foldernames back and forth--both are translated.
It should be called local-alias and remote-alias and 'nametrans' should
be 'produce-remote-alias' and 'produce-local-alias' (or something along
these lines).
Below are three runs with --info for reference.
Cheers,
Thomas
