I only have 1 message before July 01 (I religiously archive old mail)
but I couldn't see ANY message in my INBOX not even the one from June.
Plus, this is the first time I've ever seen this happen. So it could be
a different problem with the same solution. :-)

I can recreate it every single time by going to the Unread Mail search
folder. As a test I just deleted the search folder (in Evolution, not in
the shell) and recreated it and now the problem has gone away! So my
money is on some sort of corrupted config file somewhere. Argh!
