- create a fake mailbox with the same name of the old one, change format to mbox (the same as the old one), shutdown evolution, replace it with the old one.

Now when evo goes to access the Inbox it pops up the error "../Inbox/mbox is not a regular file." If I try and open properties for the Inbox it never opens. I tried to grep through the config files (XML) and could not find where the "type" of mailbox is set. Any one got a suggestion?restore the mbox file from backup if you can. nice thing about mbox's is that they're just text files. edit it and you'll probably find it's been mangled at some point, and you can then delete out the mangled bits.
