The problem is that clamav identifies the message by their filesystem
names, which are things like:
        
/home/jonrysh/.local/share/evolution/mail/local/cur/1309978791.3344_2548.localhost.localdomain:2,S
It's not obvious which message (as evolution refers to it) this is.  I
can delete them using ordinary unix commands (rm, etc), but this would
seem to make the index files incorrect, so they would need to be
reconstructed.

Thanks for your help - jon
