I use offlineimap and will hate to see it go away with Bullseye. I think
the Python3 port is at https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap3.
I can adopt it, but just wanted to know what will you suggest - update
the existing offlineimap with the new one or package the new one as
new 'offlineimap3' ?

Bug#970623: RFA: offlineimap -- IMAP/Maildir synchronization and reader support

OfflineIMAP is an IMAP/Maildir synchronization tool. Currently,
OfflineIMAP is Python 2 only, but there is a Python 3 port underway.
Unfortunately, I do not have the time to help with this port, so I
request an adopter.

The package description is:
 OfflineIMAP is a tool to simplify your e-mail reading.  With
 OfflineIMAP, you can:
 .
  * Read the same mailbox from multiple computers, and have your
changes (deletions, etc.) be automatically reflected on
all computers
 .
  * Use various mail clients to read a single mail box
 .
  * Read mail while offline (on a laptop) and have all changes
synchronized when you get connected again
 .
  * Read IMAP mail with mail readers that do not support IMAP
 .
  * Use SSL (secure connections) to read IMAP mail even if your reader
doesn't support SSL
 .
  * Synchronize your mail using a completely safe and fault-tolerant
algorithm.
 .
  * Customize which mailboxes to synchronize with regular expressions
or lists.
 .
  * Synchronize your mail two to four times faster than with other tools
or other mail readers' internal IMAP support.
 .
 In short, OfflineIMAP is a tool to let you read mail how YOU want to.
