​Many thanks for your input here.​

​I tried running offlineimap --info but it did not recognise this command.
I ran offlineimap -help and there was a debug option which I tried running:

​mikef@rhinoceros:~$ offlineimap -d
Usage: offlineimap [options]

offlineimap: error: -d option requires an argument
mikef@rhinoceros:~$ offlineimap -d type1
 OfflineIMAP 6.3.4
Copyright 2002-2011 John Goerzen & contributors.
Licensed under the GNU GPL v2+ (v2 or any later version).

 Debug mode: Forcing to singlethreaded.
 WARNING: Invalid debug type: type1
 Now debugging for : Other offlineimap related sync messages
Account sync mikefGmail:
 ***** Processing account mikefGmail
 Copying folder structure from Gmail to Maildir
 Establishing connection to imap.gmail.com:993.
 ***** Finished processing account mikefGmail

​It says that it copied the folder structure from Gmail to Maildir but the
folder is still empty.

​
mikef@rhinoceros:~$ offlineimap
 OfflineIMAP 6.3.4
Copyright 2002-2011 John Goerzen & contributors.

​I edited the config file and changed local type = Maildir to type =
GmailMaildir.

When I ran it then it crashed :

Exception: 'GmailMaildir' repository not supported for local repositories.
  ​
​It does not recognise the term GmailMaildir apparently.

​Any other suggestions you have are most welcome.

Regards
