Seems like the folders.db file was corrupt. Can I safely remove the
.evolution/mail/spool/var/mail/'user'/INBOX file, since it is the same
as  /var/mail/'user' to save space.l It was not present earlier, I
copied it there! cp -p /var/mail/'user' .evolution/.../'user'/INBOX.
Only the INBOX.* files and folders.db was present!
