All these work fine: offlineimap -u Noninteractive.Basic offlineimap -u Noninteractive.Quiet offlineimap -u Curses.Blinkenlights This is confusing - offlineimap should either recognize both capitalized and noncapitalized form of the UI name, or the manpage should be adjusted. $ rpm -q offlineimap offlineimap-6.2.0-3.1.noarch -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
