Maxage determines the date of a local message by parsing the filename;
in particular, the time is the first string of numbers at the beginning
of the filename, and is assumed to be a unix timestamp. This is
consistent with the maildir spec[0] and is not behavior I changed when
messing with this feature. So you're right, the timestamp format in the
filename is causing offlineimap to ignore these messages (since it
thinks they're 20141029 seconds-since-the-epoch old!).

Not sure what the mu4e folks told you at the time, but you could try
asking them to change the filename format.
