do not want to deleteing message from local folders when deleted from remote repository

[naveen1336]

is there any setting in offlineimap to restrict offlineimap to delete emails from local repository when deleted from remote repository if possible how to do that

[m3nu]

There are two settings that may be interesting for you:

realdelete: Only removes message labels, but doesn't delete it. Sounds like it was made for Gmail.
readonly: Makes the repository read-only, thus only syncing one-way.

The first one may be your best bet, if you are looking to dump all mails in an archive, while still adding new messages.

is these setting work on [local repository] section of config file

There is discussion from May in the newsgroup about a patch (commit here) that introduces a no-delete-local option. The patch is quite short, but some issue remain (no dashes in config options) before it can be included.
