imapfw is still WORK IN PROGRESS. It won't do anything good for now. This project is made public for developpers only.
Last WIP is in the next

imapfw is a simple and powerfull framework to work with IMAP and Maildir. It comes as a replacement to the OfflineIMAP syncer.
The main downside about IMAP is that you have to trust your email provider to not lose your mails. This is not something impossible while not very common. With imapfw, you can download your Mailboxes and make you own backups of the Maildir.
This allows reading your email while offline without the need for the mail reader (MUA) to support IMAP disconnected operations. Need an attachment from a message without internet connection? It's fine, the message is still there.
