Please describe the problem:
I have added a mail account that uses a IMAP server. I can't see any
mails in my inbox. If i take properties on the inbox, I get the correct
number of mails and unread mails, but the mails do not appear in
Messages view. I have no problem viewing the underlying folders; draft,
sent and trash.

Steps to reproduce:
1. No idea
2. 
3.

hi qwert123, are you using courier imap as imap server?

[quoting guenther here:] if you are using courier imap, change your account
settings to "show subscribed mails only". then use tools / subscribe to folders
to subscribe to your inbox and any other folder. you might need to restart Evo
in between.
there is a fix (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=53636&action=view)
for this courier related issue (bug 228929). hopefully this will be fixed again
for evo 2.4.2 / e-d-s 1.4.2.

courier ;-)
