What probably happened was that you have Evolution configured to keep old messages on the server and so while there may have been 100 messages, only 4 of them were new (in that evolution had never seen them before), so it only downloaded those 4.
if Evolution *did* delete them from the pop server, then perhaps you used to have it configured to keep-on-server and then turned that option off, at which point evolution would have downloaded the enw messages and then deleted all of them (that's what you wanted after all).
