In my case, the problem happened thus: My dad has POP email and uses Evolution. After I upgraded him to Oneiric and installed the version of Evolution present on it, the application asked me to convert the mailbox format, so I did. Now, whenever he sends an email, this message pops up. I tried deleting the old mbox account (which had become set to $USERNAME@localhost), but this did not fix the problem.
