Comment 2 for bug 430457

Hello,
This bug is related to the size of your Inbox.
I found some option to recreate the index and it fixed the problem
partially.
Later I used right-click over Inbox icon and select "compact" option.

So at this time, the old emails where removed and real size of Inbox
reduced.

This worked for me.
