Since you didn't claim you actually are missing mail, just seeing more
on the IMAP server than in your client...

They could be "deleted" (actually marked for deletion, physically
removed upon expunge). Those would have a T flag in the file name after
the comma. Your MUA Evolution shows them in the Trash (virtual) folder.

They could have been flagged Junk, and only be displayed in the Junk
(virtual) folder.

You could have a search active, hiding some mail.

You could have specifically hidden them. See the View menu.
