Hi Guix!
While looking for a non-python2 alternative, I found that there was an
official python3 port in the works! https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap3
I'd suggest we move over it? It works for me (TM), maybe others may want
to test it first?
The patch uses a new name, offlineimap3, so that it's clear it's not
exactly the same code as offlineimap. This seems to be the approach
debian took: https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap3/issues/10
Thanks,
Pierre

Yeah, I'm afraid all the tests that I can see require an IMAP account
:-/. I wonder if one day we could have marionnette-style tests in the
packages so you could run services, that would be cool.

Oh... how I did I miss that? I was sure I had at least grepped the
sources, thanks for catching that!
