From Ben Kibbey
hello,
Attached is a patch to enable evaluation of account credentials with the
remotehosteval, remoteusereval and remotepasseval configuration options.
I needed this because rather than change all my other programs
configuration settings when I change, say a password, I store them in a
file. So I call a function in pythonfile which parses the credential
file and returns the wanted info. Not really very well tested, but not
complex either. Offlineimap is great, thanks.

Attached is a new diff that should work though not really tested
(v4.0.14). In repository/Base.py restore_atime() will call
self.restore_folder_atimes() only if the folder type is Maildir. Let me
know if it has any more problems.
The attached patch adds syncing the INTERNALDATE of IMAP folders with
the mtime of messages in maildir folders.
I want this to happen, because I'm running a dovecot over the maildirs
synced by offlineimap, and that uses the mtime as the INTERNALDATE.
When using mutt to view messages I generally sort based on the received
date, which for IMAP folders is the INTERNALDATE.
Since this is the first real coding I've done in Python the patch may
need to be cleaned up some, but it's working pretty well for me. I've
added new messages to each side, and the received date has been
preserved going both ways.

Attached is a patch to restore the atime of Maildir folders after
syncing. It can be enabled via the 'restoreatime' boolean in the
configuration file. I needed this because offlineimap is run after a
fetchmail and my mail checker breaks.
