I checked my configuration and it supports ipv6. This example program
works: http://www.python.org/doc/lib/socket-example.html (the ipv6
version, last two examples).
I also changed the host and port from the ipv6 client program and it
connects perfectly to the ipv6 imap server.

I suppose some changes have to be made to offlineimap, but as I said, I
don't really know python, so I'll see what I can do ;)
