Thanks Andre. It took a couple of tries to clear the error, but it
worked in the end. I have been running Evo for a few years and never run
into this issue, but after reading bugzilla it seems that quite a few
users are experiencing this problem. I don't know if it's relevant, but
FWIW I do move a lot of messages (100+ per day), both manually and by
way of filters, from my inbox to sub-folders and I have been getting
some odd things happening that I have not seen in the past (eg.
duplicated messages and short freezes during the move).
