Hi!
OfflineIMAP used to retain the messagelist caches even after having
processed a folder. This means that memory consumption used to grow
linearly with the number of processed folders. This has been fixed in
version v6.5.7 by the following commit:
commit 29e9b7ab39c0f1589814d451204a105067f490ea

Drop caches after having processed folders.
Since the situation appears to have been improved, I am going to
downgrade this bug's severity to 'important' in order to allow the new
version to migrate to testing. Feel free to change it back if you think
this is wrong.
Cheers,
Ilias
