A slightly less brutal method
Authored by: acrollet on Feb 21, '03 03:20:44PM

I've had this problem in general with mail.app when connecting
for many short modem sessions (cell phone access was my only option) I nuked the mbox.SKindex.isValid file in the offending folder, and that fixed the problem. (I think immeadiately, without re-connecting to the IMAP server) You might need to nuke the mbox.SKindex file itself if that doesn't work - sorry for the hazy details, it's a while since I did it. At any rate, it can't hurt to try before nuking the whole directory and having to download the whole thing again.
