Well, my experience with version 2.28 is, that search folders don't
really work on special folders like INBOX or SENT. I also use IMAP,
but I tag mails with labels on arrival and move them to local folders.
Then I use search folders with conditions on these local folders which
works well.

If I correctly remember some earlier comments regarding search folders
on this mailing list, it helps to click on the regular folders holding
mails in question and then back to the virtual search folder, so that
it gets updated.

That may be a consequence of your new search condition. You may set up a
filter with those same conditions, select the mails and hit Ctrl-Y to
start the filter, having checked the gconf
attribute /apps/evolution/mail/filters/log via gconf-editor. Then you
can see in the log file what your filter aka search condition is
actually doing!
See also the evolution FAQ at http://live.gnome.org/Evolution/FAQ,
especially the entry "How I can update/refresh Search folders (formerly
called "vFolders")?"
Hope, that helps,
