I find Evolution to be completely unusable for IMAP folders. I have

I've been using evolution with imap folders since 2002. I've never had
this sort of pain. Furthermore synchronization of imap to local works
well, too.
I use both evolution and thunderbird with IMAP :-) evolution for work,
thunderbird for personal and FOSS stuff. I find thunderbird's GUI easier
to use on those large FOSS threaded mailing lists. Over time I think
i've suffered more from evolution bugs than thunderbird one, but thigns
are pretty stable now.
I just recently switched from Evolution to Thunderbird -- I've simply
seen Evolution crash too many times, wiping out reams of email history
in the process. Having Evolution hang at startup due to corruption of a
mailbox a few weeks ago was the last straw.
I find Thunderbird painfully slow, but at least it's working.
Part of me still regrets the day I didn't take up MH maintenance so
that I could continue to use MH and EXMH.... OK, not really...
