Screenshot of the error message displayed by evolution

Description of problem:
For 4 folders out of ~50, evolution fails to open or read the folder.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
$ rpm -q evolution
evolution-3.0.0-1.fc15.x86_64



How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start evolution
2. Select the folder Inbox/Fedora/Devel
3. See screenshot attached
  
Actual results:
A red bar reporting an error message

Expected results:
See my emails

Additional info:
I use this imap with evolution under F14 with no problem, same thing if I access it via a webmail.

The configuration of this evolution is from F14 previously installed on this machine, I did not try a clean evolution.

I wish I could provide a more verbose error message but I have no clue on how to do so.

If I run evolution --debug=EvolutionOut nothing happens when I click on the folders.

Thanks for a bug report. Could you try to close evolution and rename
~/.local/share/evolution/mail/imap/<account>
to some other name, thus the next start will be everything fetched fresh from the server and maybe it'll fix the issue, please? This will show us whether was something broken in local cache or the problem is elsewhere.

Another option is to check your subscriptions, in Folder->Subscriptions, whether these folders are also subscribed. It may not have much influence on this, but just in case.

Thanks in advance.

Already checked this but everything seems correct.
