SSL defaults have change. Check your configuration, especialy
ssl_version and tls_level:

  https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap/blob/master/offlineimap.conf#L681

OfflineIMAP must be configured to enable a protocol that the server
provides.

Also, you might like to check the output of --info.
