[X4U] Weird Mail problem..infinity loop of sorted /deleted mail

Just starting the last 2 days or so, whenever I delete mail from one of
my mailboxes (i.e. the "[X4U]" mail is sorted to my "OSX List" box),
the mail gets added to the appropriate Trash box...but as soon as I
click the OSX List mailbox, the mails are back again, sometimes
duplicated, and if I re-delete them, they're just re-added to the
trash. This occurs even if I erase deleted mail.
So...trash is emptied. 6 emails are in the OSX List mailbox. I read
them, then select all, then hit the Delete key. I then control-click
the Mailboxes pane, and select Erase Deleted Messages. I then
re-select the OSX List mailbox...to find the same 6 emails. When I
repeat delete-->erase deleted mail procedure and then re-check the
trash folder, I now have 12 emails in it...and the same 6 emails in my
mailbox. I can repeat it until there are hundreds of the same mail
message present in the trash.
I've tried deleting the entire Mail folder in ~/Library/ as well as
the Mail .plist files in /preferences, but don't seem to be able to fix
this one.
Any ideas?
Michael
