offlineimap sounds very interesting. Assuming it works with Exchange,
does it play nicely with Gnus? Does Gnus support Maildir format? I
can't imagine that it doesn't.
Do you use offlineimap? If so, some quick questions before I delve more
deeply into the manual. offlineimap will dump my IMAP folders into a
Maildir equivalent. I assume, then, that I use split rules on the
Maildir folders to split my messages as I see fit. offlineimap will
then sync what I've done so that my IMAP servers see where I put my
messages?
