Thanks, it's good to know that the feature is supported in principle. I
definitely have folders in my maildirs that are not getting synced up to
gmail though.
Here's my config:
https://gist.github.com/3795376
The folders in question are Archives/* folders, so they should be caught
by my folderfilter setting. The folderfilter setting is probably the
prime suspect here though.
The output of offlineimap -d ALL is an 11MB file, so I didn't post it.
I tried adding the folders to my folderincludes, but then I got this:
ERROR: Exceptions occurred during the run!
ERROR: Invalid folderinclude:
Error SELECTing mailbox 'Archives/data.gv.at', server reply:
('NO', ['[NONEXISTENT] Unknown Mailbox: Archives/data.gv.at (now in authenticated state) (Failure)'])
ERROR: Invalid folderinclude:
Error SELECTing mailbox 'Archives/register.data.overheid.nl', server reply:
('NO', ['[NONEXISTENT] Unknown Mailbox: Archives/register.data.overheid.nl (Failure)'])
ERROR: Invalid folderinclude:
Error SELECTing mailbox 'Archives/tanzania', server reply:
('NO', ['[NONEXISTENT] Unknown Mailbox: Archives/tanzania (Failure)'])
When I run offlineimap without these folders in my folderincludes, then
there are no errors and nothing about those folders in the output, it
certainly looks like they get filtered out by the folderfilter.
