This problem is on my F14 machine.
In Evolution there are two messages appearing in the Inbox list which
when one trys to view them you get the following messages such as: 

Cannot get message 31305 from
folder /home/akonstam/.local/share/evolution/mail/local/Inbox The folder
appears to be irrecoverably corrupted.

The error is correct. The message bodies are not in the Inbox file. I
have tried the usual fixing method of executing:
 evolution --force-shutdown

Then removing the
file:  /home/akonstam/.local/share/evolution/mail/local/Inbox.ibex.index

When I start evolution again the Inbox.ibex.index file is recreated but
the defective messages still appear and can not be expunged.

What can I do to fix the problem?
