I see this continuously for one of my accounts - IMAPx with local
filtering set up. The EWS account does not exhibit this problem, but
there the filters are server-side.

Here are just a couple of bugzilla entries related to this issue

  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769011
  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=767564

Running Evolution 3.20.4 FWIW.

So it is a known issue and there is no fix yet.

Thanks,

Robert
