Package: offlineimap
Version: 6.2.0+nmu2
Severity: wishlist

I use offlineimap unidirectionally to create a local cache of my gmail
inbox.  I browse both imap.gmail.com and ~/Mail with mutt.  For the
former, mutt distinguishes between "new" and "old" (in mutt terms) by
adding (KEYWORD Old) to IMAP messages.

After running offlineimap, the mail in the maildir inbox all shows up
as "new" (in mutt terms).  I wish offlinimap would magically preserve
mutt's notion of "oldness" when turning an IMAP folder into a maildir
folder.

PS: note that (KEYWORD Old) isn't the same as IMAP's notion of OLD,
i.e. (NOT RECENT).
