        Hi,
you can find a folder-tree file under ~/.cache/evolution/mail/ , which
contains a list of known Mail folders in the EWS account. It looks like
it has got out of sync with the server for some reason. Remove it, or
delete the line starting with "sync_state=" (quotes for clarity only),
and the next start of the Evolution it'll fully rescan the folders.

Settings as such are not part of the ~/.cache/, those are in GSettings
(D-Conf) and in ~/.config/ by default. More on that here:

        Bye,
