I don't know. How would I know which file to remove?
I just removed the newest files in new/cur/tmp
but this doesnt solve the issue.
What would really help here is some more informative error message!

I tried with the `-d` option but did not see any local path in the output.

Personally, I don't really care if 'things are happening', as I'm kind of O=
K with my current
offlineimap configuration and would seriously consider switching from OI
only if it meant an improvement in speed or stability.

I test this code because I believe that the notmuch ecosystem
would benefit from a working solution and that reviews and bug-reports
are important.

Of course, I don't expect any miracles in terms of speed at this early stag=
e.
But the bug I reported above should be addressed at some point in order not=
 to
scare off potential users.

Have you considered including your code in offlineimap?
I'm asking because OI already solved some of the problems you might face la=
ter on
if you want to continue working on this.

* multi-threaded downloads
* the ability to read passwords not as plaintext parameter..

best,
/p
