Offlineimap crash

[Peter von Kaehne]

Hi,

First of all many thanks for a wonderful tool!

Secondly, I am experiencing a bit of an annoyance. I am using git/master
on Debian testing. 

On syncing an account all other mailfolders get updated fine, but for
one which provokes ultimately a crash - terminal output see below. At a
guess I would think I have a corrupt message in that folder. But I can
not identify which one unless I get more info. I have offlineimap on a
bunch of other computers running fine from the same account, but these
are on Ubuntu and use repo versions of offlineimap + have had that
account and folder fully synced up for ages - while this computer is new
and the problem is there since I started syncing. I got all messages
until about 2012 in that folder. 

Any hints or suggestions?

Many thanks!
