I tried stopping evolution (and later --force-shutdown, but it said nothing was running) and deleting
ross at tempserver:~/.local/share/evolution/mail/13755xxxxx.1xxx.24 at tempserver$ ls -l
total 1120
-rw-r--r-- 1 ross ross 1129472 Sep  1 14:45 folders.db
-rw-r--r-- 1 ross ross      13 Sep  1 14:45 INBOX.cmeta
-rw------- 1 ross ross    1024 Sep  1 09:21 INBOX.ibex.index
-rw------- 1 ross ross       8 Sep  1 14:45 INBOX.ibex.index.data
all but folders.db.  This does cause some stuff to be regenerated, but it was still corrupt.

I shutdown again and deleted folders.db as well as ~/.cache/evolution/mail/13755xxxxx.1xxx1.21 at tempserver/folders.db
(the obscured part is identical, but notice it was .24@ for .local/share and .21@ for .cache/evolution.

That produced a much more extensive download, but the result was still corrupt.
