You could try rebuilding the Inbox by deleting the mbox and msf files from the profile folder, restarting TB and having it create a new folder, which would then sync with the IMAP server:

Also, make sure the profile folder is excluded from antivirus scanning, to prevent corruption of the mail folders.
