I can look in that folder using a different mail reader, so I can put
things in the search pane that I know are in the message, sender,
recipient, subject, etc.  For example, search for "sender contains" with
"@" finds every message -- except in this one folder.

Clearing the search pane using the "clear" icon at the right-hand edge
of the search pane, or simply backspacing over the text, doesn't remove
the problem.

The "clear" item on the "search" menu is grayed-out.

Restarting doesn't repair the problem.  Is the search criterion stored
in some file in ~/.evolution?
