Hi,

I have been using offlineimap for a while now to sync two IMAP boxes - 
it's a fantastic tool.

I am looking to keep these mailboxes permanently and frequently sync'd.

I have tried cron but if offlineimap aborts from some reason (I am not 
sure why it does, I think it might be a network timeout), the lock file 
will prevent cron from restarting the process.

What is the best way to get offlineimap running permanently and to 
automatically get it back on its feet if any type of exception occurs?
