Thanks, but this did not work. 

For me this is not the only issue. My autocompletion does not work (there is a 
filed bug but it seems no-one takes it seriously). Another problem is that for 
certain mail subfolders when I move message it comes back in inbox while 
keeping a copy in the folder I moved it to.... 

For all these issues I find on internet that I am not the only one suffering, 
others have them too, but no solution yet.

My computer is also with a clean installation.
