Hi,
the colon is a delimiter between message ID (in term of the Camel's
folder summary, not necessarily the Message-ID header of the email (if
I'm not mistaken), though this one looks like a Message-ID generated by
the Camel itself) and the message flags. It can be that the message
flags had been changed, but the local summary wasn't updated.

I used to get them too some time ago, but, as usual, once I tried to
investigate it further the behaviour stopped and I had just bad luck.
If I recall correctly, it had something to do with the virtual Trash
folder (backtrace can show that).
It is a bug, or the Maildir provider might be updated, to not get crazy
like this when the message flags on the file name change, but the
summary is not updated. After all, it's a valid state, because the
Maildir folder can be shared with multiple applications, especially
when it's a custom Maildir account in the Evolution.
Bye,
Milan
