Thanks for your suggestion. I tried this:

folder-hook . 'set my_record=$record; \
                set record=^; \
                macro index,pager G "!offlineimap -o -l /tmp/offlineimap.log -f $record\n" \
                     "Retrieve new IMAP messages for current folder"; \
                set record=$my_record'

However, I got an error that leads me to think that the parameter 
$record is not being received on the other side. Perhaps I should 
surround the variable name with something so that the shell recognizes 
it?

Thanks again!
