Email directory still empty after successful connection; force methods don't make any difference

[mustermann, max]

Hello,

i have newly installed offlineimap, but after the first start my 
maildirectory is still empty. Furthermoore, the methods described here 
http://offlineimap.org/doc/FAQ.html#can-i-force-offlineimap-to-sync-a-folder-right-now 
don't make any difference.

Have I forgotton something?

Regards
