Thanks. And I will also like to have your advice on the question of a transitional package for offlineimap3. I am in confusion about that. 1. If we dont have a transitional package then users of offlineimap will see it not working after they upgrade. 2. There might be incompatibilities between python2 and python3 versions which can create problems. 3.

Lets wait for reply from Derek about how we should go on with the maintenance. -- Regards Sudip
