Still applies. On another computer I created an IMAP account (same as
before). Same problem as before: No mails are found in the newly
created folder. evo is just downloading the folder content over and
over in an infinite loop!!!

This comes up when all folder data has been downloaded:
(evolution:15297): camel-imap-provider-WARNING **: No information for
message 1

Then download starts again.

This is really a critical bug!
