If the manual creation didn't fix it then either there was a typo somewhere or this isn't the root cause. > I just ran into the hang again after having deleting a folder from the > local copy and cache in order to fix a UID validity problem, offlineimap > again started hanging until I set the local account to readonly = False > and ran offlineimap once allowing it to create and download the missing > folder. I can then set readonly = True again and it works fine. So, the root cause might be more about the local cache.
