  | I used to use offlineimap, but it's buggy

My favourite bug was when it was blocking on wanting a password, but wasn't accepting input. I had to kill it externally because it wasn't accepting C-\ or C-c.

I only recently discovered isync (mbsync), which is sad given that it is crazy fast and written by the mutt author.

offlineimap is cool, but it is sadly quite slow and crashes often. New releases usually bring as many bugs as they fix.
