Recently Evolution has periodically been having a problem displaying mail 
through imap.
One minute all of the messages show up in the inbox.  Then the next, it will 
say "There are no messages in the folder"
Then it will spin and spin and say "Refreshing folder(...)" at the bottom on 
the left and
"Fetching summary information for new messages in INBOX" at the bottom on the 
right.  I don't know if the imap 
server is getting disconnected that causes this or what.  It basically looses 
all of the cached messages for INBOX 
and has to re get them and it takes a long time.  Even after it finishes 
retrieving the messages, it still says
"There are no messages in the folder".  What is it fetching for that 20 minutes 
then?  After it thinks it is done 
retrieving the messages, it will update the message count but still say "There 
are no messages in the folder".
Clicking on the Inbox folder that is already highlighted does not help.  This 
has been going on for almost a week.
This problem never happened before.  Now it is several times a day.  
Eventually, after a few hours, it seems to fix 
itself and display the messages again.  Shutting down Evolution and restarting 
doesn't help.  I'm not sure of the 
sequence of when the messages come back if it is after rebooting, closing 
evolution or just waiting.

When this happens, I can open icedove and the messages show up fine going to 
the same imap server.  I don't know if 
a hiccup in the imap server happens that causes evolution to get all confused 
or what.  I have tried with spamassassin 
on and off and it doesn't seem to make any difference.  This happens on 
multiple computers all running squeeze.

I just tried killing evolution and evolution data server and it went through 
the whole reload process and the left bar 
says 10 new messages but the message display still shows "There are no 
messages".  Icedove displays all 801 messages.

It seems to be an evolution problem not an imap server problem.
