I really think this is a feature, not a bug. If I try to echo foo > ~/mail/seanius.net/blah, and ~/mail doesn't exist, I'd get an error. It may make sense for OfflineIMAP to create seanius.net in the above example, but I don't think it makes sense for it to create ~/mail. Programs shouldn't go around creating directories willy-nilly. What if you had made a typo and said ~/msil? I'd rather have the error than create a directory on what may be a different filesystem or something.
