You may have your folder indexes corrupted. Try repairing the folder --
right-click on the folder, select "properties" and click on "Repair this
folder."

What this feature does is to delete the folder index -- which Seamonkey
will immediately recreate.

Unfortunately, it will only repair one folder at a time. If the trick
above helps you, but you have many (most?) folders exhibiting this
anomalous behavior, you can do it wholesale (well, sort of):

1. CLOSE ALL INSTANCES OF SEAMONKEY (very important).
2. Locate your mail folder (usually
%appdata%\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\(randomstring).default\ImapMail)
3. Delete all files with a "msf" file extension (or "MSF file" file
type, if you have file extensions hidden as per the stupid Windows
default), including the ones in the subfolders. DO NOT DELETE ANY OTHER
FILE.
4. Open Seamonkey.
5. Click on each and every mail folder (so Seamonkey will detect the
lack of a .MSF file and recreate it on the spot).
