As previously posted, I'm trying to convert from pine to mutt. I've decided to use offlineimap to download and sync local mail with server mail. Unfortunately, offlineimap just hangs when trying to connect to the server. The problem is almost certainly how I've configured it. I've attached the configuration file (offlineimaprc). Running offlineimap with this configuration file results in:

Account sync GP: ***** Processing account GP Account sync GP: Copying folder structure from IMAP to Maildir Account sync GP: Establishing connection to tunnel:ssh gp /usr/sbin/imapd. My ~/.ssh/config file has an entry for gp that specifies the use of PubkeyAuthentication. I know this works because it's how I normally login to the server and using mutt remotely with this server works fine. Furthermore, I can successfully use the same SSH tunnel with mutt by including it as part of an account-hook in my ~/.mutt/muttrc file: set tunnel = "ssh gp /usr/sbin/imapd" Finally, from a local terminal, ssh ml /usr/sbin/imapd allows direct fiddling with the IMAP protocol, as expected: t...@local:~$ ssh gp /usr/sbin/imapd * PREAUTH [CAPABILITY IMAP4REV1 LITERAL+ IDLE NAMESPACE MAILBOX-REFERRALS BINARY UNSELECT SCAN SORT THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT MULTIAPPEND] Pre-authenticated user tm gp.foo.bar IMAP4rev1 2004.357 at Tue, 14 Sep 2010 13:08:42 -0400 (EDT) Any suggestions on how I can get offlineimap working? Anyone have any .offlineimaprc files they can share? Thanks, TM
