Dropbox closing Carousel and Mailbox

I moved from offlineimap to mbsync (part of the iSync project) a few years ago and it has fixed most of the issues I had with offlineimap (mainly high resource usage).

Several people have suggested similar. I should do it, but the nice part of OSS: I can do it whenever it bothers me enough :)

Do you have a config posted anywhere? I'd love to see exactly how hard it would be to switch.

It's pretty straightforward to configure - Arch have a decent guide on their wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Isync

Edit: Arch seems to suggest running mbsync under a global systemd unit - user units are more appropriate for this task - my units can be found here: https://github.com/rdark/systemd-user-units
