Any reasons you can think of why it does not recognise the subfolders. In addition mail appears in the inbox but the contents of mails are unreadable.

Thanks to those replying. The problem of sync was not an evolution problem at all.
I tested with a manual transfer on a stick between the two devices which showed that folders etc could be detected.
It took a short while to evolution to scan the new changes which was unexpected but I proved evolution isn't the problem.
It turns out there it a default setting in megasync not to sync ".*" files, which was why the folders and others were not syncing...
Duh! Undocumented feature. I set mega to sync ".*" files and guess what, all works.
Thanks for the help all, this one is solved.
