[Evolution] Some mail imported from Outlook is shown in raw HTML



I used instructions like:

http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/moving-outlook-email-data-to-linux-evolution-mail-client.html

...for moving my existing Outlook mailboxes to Evolution.

Some messages are mangled: Evolution shows them as raw HTML.  For example, Evolution displays the body of an email like ("..." replaces private info):

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=us-ascii">
<META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="MS Exchange Server version 6.5.7036.0">
<TITLE>...</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->
...

Looking at the file evolution is showing, I wouldn't know what would be wrong to look for:

~/.evolution/mail/imap/ localhost/folders/INBOX/subfolders/ibox2> more 1730.

Note that not all email looks like this... it seems to have occurred to blocks of messages... and only converted messages... no new messages have had this issue.

Any idea what's wrong or, more importantly, how to fix it?

Thanks,

Chris
