Comment 5 for bug 285419

Still happens with 2.24.1-0ubuntu1

Behaviour is the same, tested by creating a new "match all" search folder with this version. Initially appears empty, and when I send myself an email to the searched folder, it appears there.

I have also noticed an additional behaviour of the total message count of the original search folder. Each time I start evolution, the message count is incremented by exactly the number of messages in one of the folders in the search, a local mailbox.

I note that if I create a search folder pointing to a single IMAP folder, the message count is correct and constant throughout subsequent runs. If I create a serach folder pointing to a single local folder, the message count is initially correct and then increments by the number of messages in the local folder each time I restart evolution. In both cases only messages received since the folder was created are listed.
