        Hi,
there probably happened something to the file, which remembers which
messages had been already downloaded/known and which not. These are
stored under ~/.local/share/evolution/mail/<account-uid>/ , one of the
files named "uid-cache". You can delete those directories, which will
reconstruct everything needed (not only the uid-cache file), but it
will also download the server messages again.

Maybe when you run Evolution from a terminal it'll show what had been
failing. You can also run it as:

   $ CAMEL_DEBUG=pop3 evolution

to see the communication between all the POP3 servers/your accounts and
the Evolution, which may also shed a bit of light on this.
        Bye,
