It seems that Kurte has done this: I just discovered a new version in
unstable. He has provided procedures to permit TLS1.0/1. But the Debian
offlineimap package in unstable has not been modified to support them,
so it is still failing. I have submitted a bug report (against the 
Debian package). The obvious stategy would be to add configuration
options to .offlineimaprc. Maybe that is something that might be
supported upstream? Nicolas?
