The only way you are going to sort out what's happening is to get some
debugging information.  Have you run Evolution from the command line?
Do you get any suspicious activity? Have a look at

  https://projects.gnome.org/evolution/bugs.shtml

and get a debug log using CAMEL_DEBUG=all - this will give you all the
IMAP chatter and you should be able to see what's going on.  If you
can't see any problems, then post a link to a sanitized copy of the logs
here and someone else will have a look to see if there are any obvious
problems.

The bottom line is that IMAP support in Evolution is usually rock solid.
I suspect it's some oddity with the server - you've never said what
server you are using?  Has anything changed with that recently?
