mail 124 headers totally wrong

My mail app has a folder with 124 emails and each one has "To" and "Subject" incorrect. They are correct in that I have sent or received as per "To" and "Subject" but inside the email is another completly different email subject and person.

Can I rejog the memory, resynchronize or such and clean these up?

Hi David,

I just encountered that strange IMAP error in Mail where all the header info was pointing to the wrong message.

I modified your suggestion and just performed a Mailbox > Rebuild command and all was well. Obvious to some I know, but I didn't even know that was available.

Thanks.
