You might have mentioned earlier that the result with other clients was
different. Clearly it's not a server problem.

I presume you've checked the usual suspects: that the Search bar is
cleared, that you are selecting a visible subset of messages (i.e. not
just Unread when there are no Unread messages), etc.

Before doing anything else, I suggest you create a new user account on
your machine, then set up Evo to access the problem email from that
account and see what happens. If it works, something is corrupt in your
normal account. Possibly it can be fixed by vacuuming the Evo index
database (see the list archives for how to do this).
