Apple Mail 8 shows welcome screen on every launch

I recently upgraded from Lion to Yosemite. Now using Mail 8.2 the welcome screen shows up with every launch of the program. Dis- and reenabling the IMAP account like proposed here did not fix it. What can I do?

    Yes, but that did not make a difference as well. I fully deleted `~/Library/Mail/V2` as well as `~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist`, rebooted the system, re-added my IMAP account and had my ~50k mails re-indexed. This took about two hours but now Mail.app behaves as expected (at least in this case). Another poor Apple job in being verbose.
