Whaddaya know, when I finally get a google chat, it works flawlessly
now. I have not updated offlineimap in the meantime (there was a release
today, wasn't there?) so that won't explain it. I did check the mail
itself, it had those three lines as above but synced flawlessly.

Will continue to keep an eye out, if it happens again will remember to
reproduce and send.
