The basic problem is in the context of syncing multiple accounts where one is fast and the others are slower (due to the number of folders). When the fast account completes, the other accounts are partially written through the list and if the file is read during this time, the list can be useless. However, in the general case, the file is probably left around from a previous run of offlineimap and is more correct, so add an option to leave it alone until all syncing is done. Incremental is still the default since this running offlineimap using its own timer setup is likely the most common setup. Turning it off works best with one-shot mode triggered by cron or systemd timers. Signed-off-by: Ben Boeckel <mathstuf@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Sebrecht <nicolas.s-dev@laposte.net>

|
|
# This file documents *all* possible options and can be quite scary.

# Overview
|
|
##################################################
|
|
|
|
# The default configuration file is "~/.offlineimaprc".
|
|
#
|
|
# OfflineIMAP ships with a file named "offlineimap.conf" that you should copy to
|
|
# that location and then edit.
|
|
#
|
|
# OfflineIMAP also ships a file named "offlineimap.conf.minimal" that you can
|
|
# also try. It's useful if you want to get started with the most basic feature
|
|
# set, and you can read about other features later with "offlineimap.conf".
|
|
#
|
|
# If you want to be XDG-compatible, you can put your configuration file into
|
|
# "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/offlineimap/config".

# NOTE 1: Settings generally support python interpolation. This means
|
|
# values can contain python format strings which refer to other values
|
|
# in the same section, or values in a special DEFAULT section. This
|
|
# allows you for example to use common settings for multiple accounts:
|
|
#
|
|
# [Repository Gmail1]
|
|
# trashfolder: %(gmailtrashfolder)s
|
|
#
|
|
# [Repository Gmail2]

# trashfolder: %(gmailtrashfolder)s
|
|
#
|
|
# [DEFAULT]
|
|
# gmailtrashfolder = [Gmail]/Papierkorb
|
|
#
|
|
# would set the trashfolder setting for your German Gmail accounts.
|
|
|
|
# NOTE 2: Above feature implies that any '%' needs to be encoded as '%%'
|
|
|
|
# NOTE 3: Any variable that is subject to the environment variables
|
|
# ($NAME) and tilde (~username/~) expansions will receive tilde
|
|
# expansion first and only after the environment variable will be
|
|
# expanded in the resulting string. This behaviour is intentional
|
|
# as it coincides with typical shell expansion strategy.
|
|
|
|
# NOTE 4: multiple same-named sections.
|
|
# The library used to parse the configuration file has known issue when multiple
|
|
# sections have the same name. In such case, only the last section is considered.

# It is strongly discouraged to have multiple sections with the same name.

# If enabled is yes, all six setting must be specified, even if they

# The incremental setting controls whether the file is written after each

|
########## Passwords
|
|
|
|
# There are six ways to specify the password for the IMAP server:
|
|
#
|
|
# 1. No password at all specified in the config file.
|
|
# If a matching entry is found in ~/.netrc (see netrc (5) for
|
|
# information) this password will be used. Do note that netrc only
|
|
# allows one entry per hostname. If there is no ~/.netrc file but
|
|
# there is an /etc/netrc file, the password will instead be taken
|
|
# from there. Otherwise you will be prompted for the password when
|
|
# OfflineIMAP starts when using a UI that supports this.
|
|
#
|
|
# 2. The remote password stored in this file with the remotepass
|
|
# option. Any '%' needs to be encoded as '%%'. Example:
|
|
# remotepass = mypassword
|
|
#
|
|
# 3. The remote password stored as a single line in an external
|
|
# file, which is referenced by the remotefile option. Example:
|
|
# remotepassfile = ~/Password.IMAP.Account1
|
|
#
|
|
# 4. With a preauth tunnel. With this method, you invoke an external
|
|
# program that is guaranteed *NOT* to ask for a password, but rather
|
|
# to read from stdin and write to stdout an IMAP procotol stream that
|
|
# begins life in the PREAUTH state. When you use a tunnel, you do
|
|
# NOT specify a user or password (if you do, they'll be ignored.)
|
|
# Instead, you specify a preauthtunnel, as this example illustrates
|
|
# for Courier IMAP on Debian:
|
|
# preauthtunnel = ssh -q imaphost '/usr/bin/imapd ./Maildir'
|
|
#
|
|
# 5. If you are using Kerberos and have the Python Kerberos package
|
|
# installed, you should not specify a remotepass. If the user has a
|
|
# valid Kerberos TGT, OfflineIMAP will figure out the rest all by
|
|
# itself, and fall back to password authentication if needed.
|
|
#
|
|
# 6. Using arbitrary python code. With this method, you invoke a
|
|
# function from your pythonfile. To use this method assign the name
|
|
# of the function to the variable 'remotepasseval'. Example:
|
|
# remotepasseval = get_password("imap.example.net")
|
|
# You can also query for the username:
|
|
# remoteusereval = get_username("imap.example.net")
|
|
# This method can be used to design more elaborate setups, e.g. by
|
|
# querying the gnome-keyring via its python bindings.
|
|
|

########## Advanced settings
|
|
|
|
|
|
# These options stands in the [Repository RemoteExample] section.
|
|
#
|
|
# Tunnels. There are two types:
|
|
#
|
|
# - preauth: they teleport your connection to the remote system
|
|
# and you don't need to authenticate yourself there; the sole
|
|
# fact that you succeeded to get the tunnel running is enough.
|
|
# This tunnel type was explained above in the 'Passwords' section.
|
|
#
|
|
# - transport: the just provide the transport (probably encrypted)
|
|
# to the IMAP server, but you still need to authenticate at the
|
|
# IMAP server.
|
|
#
|
|
# Tunnels are currently working only with IMAP servers and their
|
|
# derivatives (GMail currently). Additionally, for GMail accounts
|
|
# preauth tunnel settings are ignored: we don't believe that there
|
|
# are ways to preauthenticate at Google mail system IMAP servers.
|
|
#
|
|
# You must choose at most one tunnel type, be wise M'Lord!
|
|
#
|
|
#preauthtunnel = ssh -q imaphost '/usr/bin/imapd ./Maildir'
|
|
#transporttunnel = openssl s_client -host myimap -port 993 -quiet
|
|
|
|
|
|
# This option stands in the [Repository RemoteExample] section.
|
|
#
|
|
# Some IMAP servers need a "reference" which often refers to the "folder root".
|
|
#
|
|
# This is most commonly needed with UW IMAP, where you might need to specify the
|
|
# directory in which your mail is stored. The 'reference' value will be prefixed
|
|
# to all folder paths refering to that repository. E.g. accessing folder 'INBOX'
|
|
# with "reference = Mail" will try to access Mail/INBOX.
|
|
#
|
|
# The nametrans and folderfilter functions will apply to the full path,
|
|
# including the reference prefix. Most users will not need this.
|
|
#
|
|
#reference = Mail
|
|
|
|
|
|
# This option stands in the [Repository RemoteExample] section.
|
|
#
|
|
# In between synchronisations, OfflineIMAP can monitor mailboxes for new
|
|
# messages using the IDLE command. If you want to enable this, specify here the
|
|
# folders you wish to monitor. IMAP protocol requires a separate connection for
|
|
# each folder monitored in this way, so setting this option will force settings
|
|
# for:
|
|
#
|
|
# - maxconnections: to be at least the number of folders you give
|
|
# - holdconnectionopen: to be true
|
|
# - keepalive: to be 29 minutes unless you specify otherwise
|
|
#
|
|
# This feature isn't complete and may well have problems. See the "Known Issues"
|
|
# entry in the manual for more details.
|
|
#
|
|
# This option should return a Python list. For example
|
|
#
|
|
#idlefolders = ['INBOX', 'INBOX.Alerts']
|
|
|
|
|
|
# This option stands in the [Repository RemoteExample] section.

# OfflineIMAP can use a compressed connection to the IMAP server.
|
|
# This can result in faster downloads for some cases.

|
#usecompression = yes
|
|
|
|
|
|
# This option stands in the [Repository RemoteExample] section.
|
|
#
|
|
# OfflineIMAP can use multiple connections to the server in order
|
|
# to perform multiple synchronization actions simultaneously.
|
|
# This may place a higher burden on the server. In most cases,
|
|
# setting this value to 2 or 3 will speed up the sync, but in some
|
|
# cases, it may slow things down. The safe answer is 1. You should
|
|
# probably never set it to a value more than 5.

|
#

|
# This option stands in the [Repository RemoteExample] section.
|
|
#
|
|
# OfflineIMAP normally closes IMAP server connections between refreshes if
|
|
# the global option autorefresh is specified. If you wish it to keep the
|
|
# connection open, set this to true. If not specified, the default is
|
|
# false. Keeping the connection open means a faster sync start the
|
|
# next time and may use fewer server resources on connection, but uses
|
|
# more server memory. This setting has no effect if autorefresh is not set.
|
|
#
|

# If you want to have "keepalives" sent while waiting between syncs, specify the
|
|
# amount of time IN SECONDS between keepalives here. Note that sometimes more
|
|
# than this amount of time might pass, so don't make it tight. This setting has
|
|
# no effect if autorefresh and holdconnectionopen are not both set.

# Normally, OfflineIMAP will expunge deleted messages from the server. You can
|
|
# disable that if you wish. This means that OfflineIMAP will mark them deleted
|
|
# on the server, but not actually delete them. You must use some other IMAP
|
|
# client to delete them if you use this setting; otherwise, the messages will
|
|
# just pile up there forever. Therefore, this setting is definitely NOT
|
|
# recommended for a long term.

# synced, if it returns False, it.
|
|
#
|
|
# The folderfilter operates on the *UNTRANSLATED* name (before any nametrans

|
# translation takes place).
|
|
#
|
|
# Example 1: synchronizing only INBOX and Sent.
|
|
#
|
|
#folderfilter = lambda foldername: foldername in ['INBOX', 'Sent']
