Title:
  Cannot find outgoing message which keeps failing

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Due to other bugs with the new mbox protocol (#861064), I have a
  message that was sent to my service provider's SMTP server that it
  won't accept. That in itself isn't the problem here, but for
  completeness I've attached the error block that I see upon starting
  Evolution.

  I think I should be able to clear this condition by simply deleting
  the message from the outbox. Since it didn't get sent, it should be
  there. (If it was sent, it would be in Sent, and Evolution would stop
  trying to send it).

  My problem is that I can't find this message to clear the error.
  Consequently, every time Evolution starts, it attempts to re-send the
  message, and I get this same error.

  Another consequence is that I get a message upon quitting that there
  are unsent messages. Since I can't send them, and can't delete them,
  I also can't get this message to go away.

  By the way, the error is because of the invalid e-mail (from address)
  on my mbox account, which my provider (who uses Yahoo's servers) has
  quite rightly found wanting.
