ok... do you have an idea of the weight of the work of adding this feature. I
have never looked into the code of offlineimap but i could still try. Anyway,
i'm still surprised that neither offlineimap nor mbsync have this feature
while mutt uses it by default. I asked in mbsync mailing list the same
feature and they replied the same as you, i.e. not planned and patches
welcome.
