I finally found it. The Browser tab shows a list of "collections" in the top left pane. Right-clicking on an e-mail folder there offers "Clear akonadi cache". I did that, waited a few seconds for disk activity to stop and then took the Synchronise option. That took a long time - I don't know how long as I had to go out and leave it to itself. Repeating the procedure for each of my dodgy folders appears to have tidied up the worst of the mess, though I still get duplicates. At least now they aren't phantoms. Thanks for your perseverance, Mick. -- Rgds Peter
