Nope.
I always configure my mail accounts manually.
(stock system PR1.3.1, no cssu; some libs from devel)

But hopefully fmg is right and find time and this bug.
I need to think it is more or less a buggy mail client on our device, as I also have problems on a t-online.de account with IMAP folders (cant see spam and self created folders) and since end of last year even worse with a gmx.de account (no IMAP folders at all excluding Inbox). At that time I also thought of some change at gmx.de side (which may have happened, but idk), but now it seems it is on N900 side. All my other mail clients (incl. N9) do not have problems.

Are there any major drawbacks to using offlineimap with Modest, apart from the storage issue?

I'm not sure if it's the case here, but it is very suspicious, that problems started to appear in sync with google adding a new "feature" (no matter if you want it or not).
Possible, but just not true in this case.

I'm using a prehistoric solution for gmail (offlineimap, dovecot, alpine) and it works fine.

If gmail had changed anything, then offlineimap would have shouted.
At home I use something similar (mbsync instead of offlineimap) and it also works OK.

EDIT:

More precisely - not in modest, but in tinymail-camel
Would be interesting to gather some statistics re. CSSU vs stock. Does camel use sqlite for storage? didn't CSSU have a new version of sqlite?

Just questions thrown around, in case something hits a nerve...

(off-topic here, but..)

Yes, you can find most of the relevant information there. I don't use offlineimap's background checking option but call it periodically using alarmed. I remember I had to tweak offlineimap (it's a python script) and the dovecot settings to reduce the power consumption.

And I still have to fix a bug in Modest (which I use together with alpine), which doesn't let you see the inbox unless it thinks you are connected to Internet (even though I've set it to download IMAP emails from 127.0.0.1, i.e. the local IMAP server).

Strange It was working fine until i updated CSSU stable yesterday(there where fixes for modest there).
Now I can use one account without any problem and second one inbox does not work. I can still read sent messages.

Absolutely certain. I'm not using CSSU at all, and my copy of Modest has the problem.
