Figured it out. Nothing to do with mbsync, really. Thanks for your help! — For posterity’s sake, it was a shoddy notmuch/afew configuration. I was attempting to synchronize maildir subfolders with notmuch tags via afew’s [move mode]. The notmuch database uses the Message-ID as a key and only marks new mail if the Message-ID is new. If mail moved on the far side (i.e. I triaged mail with another client), mbsync would sync the moves correctly, but notmuch would not consider the moved mail as new, so `afew --tag --new' would not update the folder-based tags. Then `afew --move-mails' would move the mail /back/ to the existing, outdated folder tag from the notmuch database. And `mbsync' would of course diligently sync these changes, appearing to me as “contention”. The moral of the story is I need to bid adieu to IMAP folders and move to JMAP. —Liam [move mode] <https://afew.readthedocs.io/en/latest/commandline.html#move-mode>
