@nicolas33 this patch appears to not have been applied to release offlineimap v8.0.0, imaplib2 v3.06, Python v3.11.4, OpenSSL 3.0.9 30 May 2023 (git pull of master on a Fedora 38).

Monkey-patching it solved one of my Office 365 migration problems.

Do you want me to open a proper pull request based on @chris001 code?
