Maybe related, since the workaround is the same: Since upgrading to
evolution 2.22.1 (with 8.04 LTS), there is a different error message,
like "Error storing Inbox folder: Corrupted MBOX file or invalid "From"
line detected." (I use the German version, so this may not be the
entirely correct English message). Deleting the index files & restarting
evolution removes the problem temporarily. Main difference: I
encountered the "summary and folder mismatch" error only once every few
months, whereas this one comes up each time I start Evolution for the
first time after booting the system.

This new error message points me at the fact that many spam mails do not
have a valid  "From:" line (well, it is blank) but use the "X-Sender"
instead. Evolution displays those mails in the preview window as if the
"From:" line were there, you can only tell the difference when looking
at the mail code. So, to clarify my previous statement: This error
occurs each time I start Evolution for the first time after booting the
system AND if there are spam mails in the Inbox (which is usually the
case). Haven't observed this error yet when no spam was there...

TIA,
