The following explains how to make offlineimap sync the custom gnus flags: https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap/wiki/Syncing-custom-tags > not to mention the nnml groups I also use. That's a harder problem. But if you use different server names for the IMAP servers on the two machines, then maybe synchronizing the .newsrc.eld won't cause a problem with IMAP.
