This morning I have the same problem after launching Evolution. And I have found another source of problems. In the new UI in the messages view to the left of the search engine you have a list selector and you can for example control if to show all messages or only the messages not read.

But if you mix that list selector with the menu entry View->Hide Read Messages, you can't control from the list selector (the best way because it is in the UI very visible) anymore to see all the messages. In the list selector you can have selected "All Messages" but you only see the not read messages.

And also, in the View menu entry the View->Hide Read Messages no tip appears behind the menu entry so you are unaware that you have selected it.

The new UI is cool and much better but for now it isn't working correctly because it isn't working coordinating the actions between different UI widgets.

Daniel, if you need more data about the problems, just ask for it. I can't reproduce the first bug report in a step by step guide but this morning I have the problem another time.

The View->Show Hidden Messages is for now my work around.

I suppose in next versions of Evolution the entries in View menu that also are managed now from the Show list selector in message view will be removed, after user learn to use the new UI.

Evolution 2.8 seems to be much faster than the previous version with my 55000 messages folders ;-)
