Abdo Roig-Maranges 478091f9ac fix paths in systemd README
The right places to manually put systemd user units is:

* /etc/systemd/user if you want them to be available to all users,

* ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/systemd/user for a single user.

The upstream rationale is: user configuration goes to /etc/systemd or
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/systemd, while package provided config goes to
/usr/lib/systemd or $XDG_DATA_HOME/systemd.

If offlineimap ever installs systemd units from the install scripts, it
should install them to /usr/lib/systemd/user.

Systemd units
=============
These unit files are meant to be used in the user session. You may drop them
into `/etc/systemd/user` or `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/systemd/user` followed by
`systemctl --user daemon-reload` to have systemd aware of the unit files.
These files are meant to be triggered either manually using `systemctl --user
start offlineimap.service` or by enabling the timer unit using `systemctl
--user enable offlineimap.timer`. Additionally, specific accounts may be
triggered by using `offlineimap@myaccount.timer` or
`offlineimap@myaccount.service`.
These unit files are installed as being enabled via a `mail.target` unit which
is intended to be a catch-all for mail-related unit files. A simple
`mail.target` file is also provided.
