Interesting. When I used IMAP in Mutt, rather than offlineimap, I was really frustrated by the constant lag within Mutt from syncing with the server. Offlineimap isn't the fastest ever at syncing either, but at least it happens all in one go, and then the full contents of all the emails I care about are on my local machine. I'd love to see your config to see if I can improve things.
