Is it possible to configure offlineimap to ignore emacs lock
files? When I have a draft open in emacs offlineimap fails with an
error such as this:
<...>
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'/[path-removed]/Drafts/cur/.#1449285070.a2f54ffc8b313375.stubbs:2,DS'
It would seem this could be avoided if I could configure
offlineimap to ignore files matching the re "\.#.*", or by having
it ignore dot files in general while syncing.
While at it, I'd rather make OfflineIMAP ignore any dot file.
Might I advocate for ignoring any filename not adhering to the maildir filename
shape? See:
http://cr.yp.to/proto/maildir.html
You might choose to be less strict, but still require filenames to start with a
digit (old scheme) or one of #XRIVMPQ.
Also, have we any counter examples of maildir using programs which do not
_create_ files according to the scheme?
