        Hi,
I do not know for sure, but it can also be that something happened to
your local cache of the IMAP account.

Try to access Folder->Subscriptions... menu option for that IMAP
account and check what folders are shown there. Maybe
subscribe/unsubscribe the problematic one, or some of its parent(s).

In case it'll not help (also after evolution's restart after these
changes), get rid of the local cache and let the evolution to download
the cache from scratch. The local cache is stored under
   ~/.cache/evolution/mail/<imap-account-uid>/
Close the Evolution, rename the whole folder and then run the Evolution
again.
        Hope it helps,
        Milan
