OK, so I figured out what to do.
1) Backup (or maybe "export" would be a better term for this usage)
your sup index.
2) Set up your offlineimap stuff.
3) Move .sup aside and sup-config again, but choose the Maildir that
offlineimap is writing to.
3b) Copy any config stuff (colors, hooks, contacts.txt, etc) from the
old .sup back in.
4) Restore the backup.
Ta-da!
