Within :mod:`offlineimap`, the classes :class:`OfflineImap` provides the high-level functionality. The rest of the classes should usually not needed to be touched by the user. A folder is represented by a :class:`offlineimap.folder.Base.BaseFolder` or any derivative :mod:`offlineimap.folder`.

:mod:`offlineimap.repository` -- Email repositories

------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
A derivative of class
|
||||
:class:`Base.BaseRepository` represents an email
|
||||
repository depending on the type of storage, possible options are:
|
||||
|
||||
* :class:`IMAPRepository`,
|
||||
* :class:`MappedIMAPRepository`
|
||||
* :class:`GmailRepository`,
|
||||
* :class:`MaildirRepository`, or
|
||||
* :class:`LocalStatusRepository`.
|
||||
|
||||
Which class you need depends on your account
|
||||
configuration. The helper class :class:`offlineimap.repository.Repository` is
|
||||
an *autoloader*, that returns the correct class depending
|
||||
on your configuration. So when you want to instanciate a new
|
||||
:mod:`offlineimap.repository`, you will mostly do it through this class.
