Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

I'm running Ubuntu Intrepid 32-bit, but I've had this bug for a long
time. Every now and then, after downloading some new message headers
from my Gmail account (using IMAP), Evolution gets into a state where it
can't download anything new after that. If I then attempt to open one of
the new messages that I got headers for, I get the error:

Unable to retrieve message
IMAP command failed: Unknown Mailbox: INBOX (Failure)

If I try again (by going to an old, cached message and then going back),
I get a different error:

Unable to retrieve message
IMAP command failed: UID not allowed now.

Images of the errors are attached. Retrying again continues to give the
second error from then on. The problem clears once I exit Evolution and
restart it.
