claws sometimes mixes the contents of different folders.
This happens under the following conditions:

- you have two or more IMAP folders

  Of same account? different accounts?

I was able to trigger the issue with both setups:

- two folders on the same (and only) account
- two inbox folders on different accounts

the contents of the large folder will be mixed in other folders.

  Do you mean it will be mixed on the summary view or mixed in the
  same folder of the filesystem?

They get mixed in the summary view, and the message preview also shows the wrong message. I never actually checked the filesystem, but I will the next time.

  Do you have any processing rules in the involved folders?

No processing rules.

I have several filtering rules to tag the color of the messages depending on the subject though.

What I usually do is discard the folder cache, disable automatic checking
of new messages (otherwise I end-up with the same issue) and restart
claws. With a folder containing at least 1k messages, it is almost
*guaranteed* that an automatic check of new mail will disrupt the folder
content.

  Don't understand this part: do you this for fixing the mix or for
  preventing it or what for?

To fix the mixing, I simply discard the folder cache and re-download the folders. That's easy.

To avoid that the issue shows up again while doing _this_, though, I also disable the automatic e-mail check to avoid claws trying to work on two accounts at the same time, otherwise I end up with the same issue.

I'm trying to setup the same environment in order to reproduce your bug,
  so thanks in advance for the info.

Thanks. I promised to look into claws sources, but I don't have time.
Let me know for any way I can help.
