Hi.
You could be a victim of the following bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/381164
As mentioned in this bug report, a possible work around is to remove
(or move aside) the damaged folders.db file; for example, make sure
you are not running evolution, then (on the command line) do:
cd ~/.evolution/mail/imap/rezy_p@PO10.MIT.EDU
mv folders.db folders.db.bad
Then try to start evolution; it should recreate folders.db. (If this
works, you can then remove folders.db.bad).
Please let us know whether this resolves the problem.
Thank you for reporting this bug.
Bob
