[Evolution] Bug#728836: evolution: imapx messages vanish may not be fixed upstream

[Ross Boylan]

Package: evolution
Version: 3.4.4-3
Followup-For: Bug #728836

I ran into a similar seeming problem.  The upstream bug is closed as a
duplicate of https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704513, which is marked
as fixed.

However, one of the developers, also the bug submitter, indicated that the
latter bug is only about folders disappearing entirely:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2014-April/msg00017.html.  That
does not sound like the symptoms reported here.

That message also has a pointer to possible causes of apparently missing
messages; that worked for me--I had unintentionally selected display of unread
messages only.
