offlineimap v. 7.0.8 I'm using a function, "pathsubs()", loaded through a pythonfile for nametrans. This function will return the local folder name to be synced with the given remote folder through the variable folder_r. For debugging purpose this variable is set by default to the only remote folder I'm interested in.
Here are the key settings about the problem from my offlineimap configuration: folderfilter = lambda foldername: foldername in [ '[Gmail]/Sent Mail' ] nametrans = lambda folder: pathsubs( folder_r = folder ) For these settings offlineimap does not work properly and says: ERROR: While attempting to sync account 'gmail' descriptor 'lower' requires a 'str' object but received a 'NoneType' *** Finished account 'gmail' in 0:08 ERROR: Exceptions occurred during the run! ERROR: While attempting to sync account 'gmail' descriptor 'lower' requires a 'str' object but received a 'NoneType' It should be noted that pathsubs() will return without any value if folder_r is set wrongly. As the error says a 'NoneType' was received it might be that folder_r was indeed wrongly set. If I do not specify any parameter to pathsubs offlineimap works well as expected. Here are the corresponding settings: folderfilter = lambda foldername: foldername in [ '[Gmail]/Sent Mail' ] nametrans = lambda folder: pathsubs() In the pythonfile pathsubs is set with folder_r = '[Gmail]/Sent Mail' and the local folder to be synced with is set as 'sent'. The variable localfolders in the offlineimap config file is set to '~/gmail'. Working as expected means that offlineimap does indeed sync only '[Gmail]/Sent Mail' with '~/gmail/sent' which means both folderfilter and nametrans worked fine. _______________________________________________ OfflineIMAP-project mailing list: [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/offlineimap-project OfflineIMAP homepages: - https://github.com/OfflineIMAP - http://offlineimap.org
