Solved: I didn't have to use the command line or remove any ibex.index files. I was able to fix it by using the GUI. I use Evolution as an imap client.
Steps: Close Evolution Click the "Places" menu item and select "Home Folder" Click the "View" menu item and select "Show Hidden Files." Open the "imap" folder located under .evolution/mail. Locate and open the folder for the mail account having the problem and delete the "folders.db" file inside of it. (Screenprint: http://ubuntuone.com/2GJY8lJulShlCCzZkDnNK0) Start Evolution application The "folders.db" file will be automatically re-generated. Error message gone.
