Would you believe it, it now works! I installed FC2 on Monday and it
hasn't worked all week - I come into work, login and start evolution and
then have to expand the folders. This morning I did the same except that
the folders I wanted expanded were, the others were (correctly) left
unexpanded!

The filtering of the INBOX also seems to now work :-) Very odd.

Okay, many thanks for this. I was also emailed that the rpm
380382-ximian-connector-1.4.7.1-0.ximian.6.1.i386.rpm has been used with
some success. The user didn't know where it came from but I suspect a
search of the ximian site may find it.
