Package: offlineimap
Severity: wishlist
Version: 4.09

It would be nice to have a configuration flag to force the deletion of
maildirs that have been deleted from the server. (Clearly not on by
default, of course.)

Something like the following:

If offlineimap is aware of the maildir (exists in ~/.offlineimap/),
the server no longer has the maildir, and the flag is set then
  delete the maildir
otherwise
  do nothing

Basically, I have a few accounts where maildirs are automatically
created and deleted by a set of cronjobs for things like mailing lists
and the ilk. It would be nice if these maildirs were also deleted by
offlineimap when they no longer exist on the imap server.

[A slightly less optimal alternative would be a method to say that for
specific account(s), the server copy is authoritative, and UID
conflicts should just result in downloading the messages again.]
