Yes it works for me as well. But it depends on what the OP is using. The value is stored in Gconf to maintain state and held in the key /apps/evolution/mail/display/hpaned_size - if the OP is using evo on, say, kde and gconf isn't working, then value won't be stored. You can see what's happening by running the command gconftool-2 -g /apps/evolution/mail/display/hpaned_size to give you the value of that key. Changing the size of the preview pane should result in that value changing.
