So why do we need the offlineimap step here? In the scenario you'= +ve

Yes - offlineimap is not ne= +eded actually, but I personally I see notmuch as an indexing / tagging prog= +ram for a mailabox in maildir format, which means local. So all changes are= + done locally, and not bad on an imap server (or synching tags with an imap= + server). This would be the job for offlineimap. But actually I don't c= +are which program is doing it.

Big deal.  Email headers are modified all the time by various pi= +eces of
+software.

Well - it is ust my feeling that the les= +ser changes are done to the email and its headers, the better.

Cheer= +s,
