Thanks a lot for the instructions at https://github.com/sup-heliotrope/sup/wiki/Complete-gmail-configuration . However, when I run offlineimap after configuring as you suggested, I get:

$ echo "Just to be sure I'm starting clean"
$ rm -rf ~/.mail/dicoim ~/.offlineimap/Account-dicoim ~/.offlineimap/Repository-dicoim-*
$ offlineimap -o
OfflineIMAP 6.7.0

Account sync dicoim:

My .offlineimaprc is here https://gist.github.com/giacecco/1d368a9ca0cac1cbbede30193be9e654 . The offending nametrans is the one in the Repository dicoim-remote section. The file is almost identical to the one you shared. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
