I use offlineimap to synchronise an exchange mail server and an
courier-imap server. The exchange server is used for push-email.

So even if the clients do get better, there will always a need for offlineimap.

After using offline imap for two month, the main issue is regarding
timing. I'm not sure offlineimap can do anything about it but here it
goes:
the time showed on the synchronised email is the time showed when it
was synchronised not when the message was originally received.

The first time I synchronised my account with another imap server
(here exchange), the 14000+ email were all dated on the day of the
synchronisation.

It would be useful to have a way to force the time (assuming it is possible).
