I've been using Evolution in various versions via CentOS, RHEL and
Fedora for years, always with an IMAP server and using TLS too. Note
that this e-mail (like all my e-mails whether from office or home) was
written with Evolution.

Never had an issue

The only feature that it seems to lack is support for namespaces such as
those offered by cyrus with shared folders.
