Here is my setup using offlineimap to sync mail with gmail and dovecot to speak
imap with gnus.
** .gnus file
(setq gnus-select-method
'(nntp "localhost"))
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
'(
(nnimap "Mail"
(nnimap-stream shell)
(nnimap-shell-program
"/usr/lib/dovecot/imap -o
mail_location=maildir:~/Maildir/:LAYOUT=fs")
)
(nnfolder "archive"
(nnfolder-directory "~/Documents/gnus/Mail/archive")
(nnfolder-active-file "~/Documents/gnus/Mail/archive/active")
(nnfolder-get-new-mail nil)
(nnfolder-inhibit-expiry t))))
(gnus-registry-initialize)
** dovecot
Important line in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf:
# this is the important line
mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:LAYOUT=fs
** offlineimap
This is contents of ~/.offlineimaprc
[general]
# defines get_pass()
pythonfile = ~/.offlineimap.py
# List of accounts to be synced, separated by a comma.
accounts = Gmail
[Account Gmail]
# Identifier for the local repository; e.g. the maildir to be synced via IMAP.
localrepository = Gmail-local
# Identifier for the remote repository; i.e. the actual IMAP, usually non-local.
remoterepository = Gmail-remote
[Repository Gmail-local]
type = Maildir
localfolders = ~/Maildir/Gmail
[Repository Gmail-remote]
type = Gmail
remoteuser = [email protected]
remotepasseval = get_pass("GMail")
folderfilter = lambda foldername: foldername in ['INBOX', 'Dev',
'[Gmail]/Trash']
# Necessary as of OfflineIMAP 6.5.4
sslcacertfile = /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
