Not knowing exactly what happened, I would of course suggest that you
absolutely make a backup before doing this...

Anyway, if you delete ~/.offlineimap, but leave the mail folders where
OfflineIMAP can see them, if should consider every local and every
remote message new, and copy them back and forth as appropriate.

Cross your fingers...
