This is super weird, you're having an identical issue to me,
including from a sendgrid address:
ERROR: UID 126179
(<zf3lf1bgtw-ct-y9a15wlquq3bukrddphg-173.82.166...@ismtpd0003p1iad1.sendgrid.net>)
has defects preventing it from being processed!
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in
position 434-435: ordinal not in range(128)
I've been meaning to post on stackoverflow or here about it but
just haven't gotten around to it
It prevents me from keeping offlineimap running continously
because it causes a crash.
I also wasn't able to find the offending email on my gmail server
anywhere, at least not using gmail's search tools (or other
applications), because if I could I'd just delete it and move on.

I'm running imap in a docker container (maxkratz/onlineimap),
after trying repeatedly to run it in bare debian. I'm backing
up from
Gmail. In the container, offlineimap -V shows:
offlineimap v8.0.0, imaplib2 v3.05, Python v3.10.6, OpenSSL
3.0.2 15 Mar 2022
The docker container gets me further, but in both cases,
offlineimap eventually errors and closes after hitting 5-10
encoding errors, such
as:

This seems to be related to UTF-8 encoding somehow. My next step
would be to look at these message (or figure out a fix). But how
do I determine which message is causing the failure? UID 140848
doesn't appear in my maildir yet, and Gmail does not see the
sendgrid address when I search.
